Acacia Network La Casita III

Acacia Network UBP La Casita III provides specialized residential addiction treatment for women in the Bronx, New York.

This facility focuses on long-term recovery for adult women including those who are pregnant or postpartum. The program is uniquely designed to help mothers build a stable, drug free life while allowing their young children to live with them during treatment.

Long-Term Residential Treatment for Women

The flagship service at La Casita III is a long-term residential program that typically spans six to 12 months to allow ample time for deep stabilization and growth. This track is specifically tailored for women with substance use disorders including those with dual diagnosis or co-occurring mental health conditions.

I found that a key feature of the program is its capacity to house children alongside their mothers. This removes a significant barrier to care for women with caregiving responsibilities.

Clients in this program engage in a structured environment that combines clinical therapy with life skills development. Treatment modalities include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing and trauma informed care delivered by bilingual staff. Daily schedules also prioritize parenting skills, time management and independent living training to prepare clients for a successful return to the community.

Your Journey at La Casita III

The path to recovery at this facility involves a comprehensive, multi-step approach tailored to the needs of mothers and women.

First, you'll undergo a thorough evaluation to determine medical needs, housing eligibility, and mental health status. Clients may receive medication-assisted treatment (MAT) if medically necessary to manage cravings and withdrawal.

They also encourage active participation in individual, group, and family counseling sessions using evidence-based practices. I appreciate that there's a focus on parenting workshops, emotional regulation, and vocational or life skills training.

Couples and Family Counseling in the Bronx

To support holistic healing, La Casita III provides ancillary services such as couples counseling and family therapy to help repair relationships damaged by addiction. Case managers also assist with critical needs regarding homelessness, domestic violence, and legal system involvement.

The facility accepts Medicaid, various private insurance plans and self-pay. Sliding scale payment options or public assistance may be available for women without adequate insurance coverage.
