About Bolger House

Mental Health America of Dutchess County is a nonprofit organization whose staff is committed to providing access to care for individuals with mental illness and substance use disorders. One way they help is through supportive community residences, one of which is Bolger House located in Poughkeepsie, New York. The programs are 8.20 Office of Addiction and Supports Reintegration programs so they accept various Medicaid plans for payment.

Safe and Supportive Living Arrangements in Poughkeepsie

Poughkeepsie is home to a scenic economic powerhouse with small town charm and two major colleges, Vassar and Marist. Additionally, they boast the longest elevated pedestrian bridge in the world. It goes over the Hudson River and connects Poughkeepsie to the Town of Lloyd.

I like what a beautiful place this is for recovery, and Bolger House offers a supportive community. The house is for men in recovery, and they typically stay between 9-12 months. This offers time for a comprehensive recovery and community reintegration.

The onsite services include counseling, life skills training, and vocational planning. I think clients will like how the program equips them to get back to a full, productive life. While living here, you’ll build a sober network, learn about outpatient programs, and open the door to opportunity.
