A safe, structured home for adults working toward stability — sober living, mental health recovery, reentry, and veteran transition. Real people answer when you call. Every day, every hour.
A New Day Independent Living is a shared, structured home in New Orleans for adults working on stability — sober living, mental health recovery, life after incarceration, and veteran transition.
We are not a clinic or a hospital. We don't try to be. What we provide is something just as important: a clean room, a locked medication box, a calm house, a curfew that holds, and people who notice when you're missing.
We house four populations across our houses — including male-only houses, female-only houses, and a designated house for registered residents. House assignment matches both the population and the person.
Six things we get right — and don't apologize for.
You call, a person answers. Day, night, holiday — the line is open. No menu trees, no callbacks the next business day.
Clear rules, consistent enforcement, and curfews that mean something. Predictability is treatment, in its own way.
Locked medication boxes for every resident. Observed dosing for controlled prescriptions. Your medication stays yours.
We work with your case manager, your VA worker, your supervising officer, your treatment provider — with your written consent.
Mental health, veterans, reentry, and registered residents. We don't put everyone under one roof. House placement matches the person.
Whether you're calling at 3 a.m. from a hospital or being dropped off from county lockup, you are talked to like a person. Always.
Male-only and female-only homes — no co-ed — plus a designated house for registered residents.
Stable, structured housing that supports your outside treatment — your psychiatrist, your therapist, your meds. We don't replace your providers. We give you a calm place to live while you work with them.
We coordinate with SSVF, HUD-VASH, GPD, and other VA programs. Your VA case manager is part of the picture. You served — we treat you like it.
A real address. A landline that picks up when your PO calls. Compliance documented. The structure required to make supervision work in your favor.
Designated separate house, located in compliance with Louisiana distance requirements. Registration verified at intake. We work with your verifying officer.
Five steps. As fast as same day. We make the process easy so your client gets help without delay.
