Dismas Home’s holistic care transforms the lives of formerly incarcerated women.
DHNH is a state licensed, 90-day, Low-Intensity, Residential Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Treatment and Reentry Program. Addiction is a significant obstacle for our residents and is directly linked to underlying pain, trauma, and incarceration.
A family-like, home environment offers holistic care providing whatever is needed to transform our resident’s lives. Each resident participates in daily group therapies and receives individual psychotherapy and intensive case management. Our diverse, evidenced-based programming supports the wellbeing of body, mind, and spirit. Loving care and assistance are available 24/7.
Dismas Home exists to successfully transition our residents back into New Hampshire communities to live a sober, mentally and physically healthy life. Our Transitional Living Program breaks the cycle of returning to prison and assists our residents to become self-sufficient and productive citizens.
Dismas Home collaborates with colleges and universities, non-profit organizations, community and civic organizations, experts, and volunteers to provide the formerly incarcerated with the best opportunities to succeed in their transition back into society in a structured, accountable environment.
Together we can save the taxpayers of New Hampshire significant tax dollars annually by reducing recidivism, keep families intact by providing hope, dignity, and support their loved ones, and work closely with federal, state, and local correctional authorities and agencies to navigate the challenges of reentry into society.
