About Harriet May Mills House

Located in a historic building in Syracuse, New York, the Harriet May Mills House for Women, operated by Helio Health, offers residential treatment for adult women struggling with substance use disorders. They provide a structured, therapeutic environment designed for recovery. The length of stay is determined by residents’ needs and their progress within the program.

Treatment for Women of Diverse Backgrounds

Focused on developing coping strategies and fostering independent living skills, their holistic, evidence based approach centers around the unique needs of women. I like that they’re supportive of women of diverse backgrounds, including those referred from the criminal justice system and those requiring transitional housing during their recovery.

With a commitment to dignity, equality and empowerment, they offer individual and group counseling, relapse prevention planning and life skills training. Case management services, referrals for mental health services and connections to community resources are available when necessary.

Supportive, Empowering Environment

I found positive reviews of the facility, with former clients highlighting the supportive, empowering environment that helps women to regain control of their lives. They express appreciation for the structured setting and compassionate staff. Several cite significant personal growth, recovery progress and renewed hope after participating in the program.

When clients complete residential treatment, they can move on to outpatient clinics operated by Helio Health. Outpatient care will give you time to explore outdoor spaces and community resources that may compliment your recovery journey.

The Rosamond Gifford Zoo features lush gardens and scenic pathways, offering special programs for kids and families that emphasize conservation and education. Green Lakes State Park is composed of glacial lakes surrounded by hiking trails that are suitable for all skill levels, and provides opportunities for swimming, kayaking and picnicking.
