It is an outpatient program supporting recovery from substance use disorder (SUD), alcohol addiction, and co-occurring mental health conditions. The program serves adults and families through structured outpatient care that includes assessment, counseling, psychiatric support, and aftercare planning.

Rebuild Balance With Support

FAIR uses a social and psychodynamic approach supported by individualized, evidence-informed therapies. Clients participate in individual counseling, group therapy, family and couples therapy, relapse-prevention groups, and self-help support. Care focuses on understanding substance use patterns, reducing relapse risk, and strengthening emotional insight, coping skills, and communication to support long-term recovery and mental wellness.

Trust Care With Deep Roots

The program is rooted in a long-standing commitment to community mental health that dates back to the clinic’s founding in 1962. FAIR builds on decades of experience serving diverse New York City neighborhoods with culturally responsive, family-centered care. Bilingual clinicians support English- and Spanish-speaking clients while addressing the needs of individuals, children, and loved ones affected by addiction. This legacy of service reinforces trust, continuity of care, and lasting recovery within the communities FAIR serves.
