New England Aftercare Ministries, Inc. was formed to reduce recidivism in the criminal justice system. The Bridge House, located at 18 Summit Street in Framingham, MA, was opened in 1987 and now assists up to thirty-three male residents in their recovery from substance abuse and addiction. Hundreds of men and their families have been helped to overcome the devastating effects of addiction and incarceration. The Bridge House is licensed by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health Bureau of Substance Abuse Services as a residential treatment program. Residents come from detox, family and professional referral, and the criminal justice system. They stay in resident treatment for six months, working full time in the community, and attending nightly meetings. Then they spend three months living in the community, under the supervision of Bridge House staff. New England Aftercare Ministries also provides individual and family counseling, addiction and recovery training, and prison ministry networking. Prayer Requests:
