Anew Behavioral Health plans Newark office, proposes sober living and day-treatment services
Summary
Anew Behavioral Health told the Newark City Council it plans to open a Commerce Center office at 195 Union Street to offer substance use day treatment, psychiatry, therapy and case management and to coordinate sober-living placements.
Kim Stuck, operations manager for Anew Behavioral Health, told the Newark City Council during public comment that the provider plans to open an office in Newark—s Commerce Center at 195 Union Street and to offer integrated behavioral health services, including substance use day treatment and coordination with sober living homes.
Stuck said the office would provide assessments with admissions processed in about 24 to 48 hours, psychiatry, nursing, individual and family therapy, medication management, case management and care coordination for all ages; the organization plans to offer day-treatment programming for residents of sober-living homes and to partner with local schools on student supports. She said the planned opening was "shortly" and projected for mid-November.
Stuck asked the council and staff to partner on zoning and placement for sober-living homes and community coordination. Council members welcomed the provider, thanked Stuck for the presentation and said they looked forward to working with Anew.
