Saint Christopher’s Inn is a centuries-old Franciscan friar-led addiction and recovery center that helps men find freedom from drug and alcohol addiction through full residential or day treatment. It provides holistic programs that offer spiritual support, medically assisted treatment (MAT) and guidance for quitting substance use and smoking. Their approach ensures that each person has a solid foundation for building a new, healthy, and productive sober life.
The facility’s approach combines various clinical therapies with compassionate, faith-based support. Through group sessions and individual counseling, men engage in self-exploration and meditation to identify roots of their addiction and learn healthy coping skills. This process helps them rebuild their self-respect, self control and gain the essential life skills needed to maintain a sober and healthy lifestyle, achieve personal growth and complete the entire treatment program.
The center uses the term Brothers Christopher to refer to men who live together in dormitory-style rooms, building a strong sense of belonging and support. Located on a serene Garrison, New York campus, the Inn offers a nature-based recovery setting. This quiet environment allows individuals to engage in art, expressive writing, and choir to boost awareness, reduce stress, and build self-esteem.
