The first of its kind in NYC, our Adult Crisis Residence is an alternative to emergency hospitalization for individuals aged 21 and up experiencing psychiatric crises: a welcoming and supportive home-like environment. The Adult Crisis Residence offers the following services:

• 24-hour support from peers (individuals with lived experience of receiving mental health services and trained to provide support to others)
• self-advocacy education
• self-help training

ACCESS THE CRISIS RESIDENCE

Are you an adult (21+) New York City resident experiencing (or anticipating) a psychiatric and/or emotional crisis? If so, you may be interested in becoming an Adult Crisis Residence guest.

Here’s a quick overview of how our intake process works:

As a first step, contact them – at the number listed – so that our Crisis Residence can ask you some pre-registration questions.

If you meet their eligibility requirements, we’ll then guide you through next steps – including what they will need from a licensed mental health provider before you can begin your stay. (Please note: Crisis Resident can help connect you to a licensed mental health provider if needed.) You can also follow these same steps to refer someone else to them – provided the person meet the same eligibility standards.
