Family Residences and Essential Enterprises, Inc. - Bethpage

Family Residences and Essential Enterprises is a nonprofit human services organization founded in 1977 and headquartered in Old Bethpage, New York. They focus primarily on mental health services while also addressing substance use needs within an integrated behavioral health framework. Their programs support individuals with serious mental illness through residential, outpatient, and community-based services designed to promote stability, independence, and long-term recovery.

A Broad Continuum of Mental Health and Recovery Services

Their behavioral health offerings range from residential mental health programs to outpatient clinics and day treatment services. They also operate crisis intervention and recovery support programs that help individuals remain engaged in care during periods of increased need. Services emphasize recovery-oriented and person-centered approaches, supporting daily living skills, emotional regulation, and community participation. Substance use support is addressed alongside mental health care for individuals whose needs overlap across both areas.

Support Across the Lifespan

In addition to adult programs, they deliver behavioral health services for children and adolescents ages 5 to 21, with a focus on emotional and behavioral challenges and active family involvement. Home and community-based supports, clinical services, and recovery-oriented care help individuals of all ages remain connected to their homes, schools, and communities while receiving ongoing mental health support across Long Island and New York City.
