About

About Freedom House

Freedom House provides substance use treatment for men in downtown Rochester, New York, as a program of Catholic Charities Family and Community Services (CCFCS). The program operates within a broader CCFCS network that has served the Rochester region for more than a century, anchoring behavioral health, housing, refugee, and family-support services across Monroe County.

The continuum at Freedom House begins with medical detoxification for participants who need supervised withdrawal management, then transitions into residential rehabilitation, and concludes with outpatient services to support reintegration into work, family, and community life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the documented clinical framework, helping participants identify and reshape the patterns of thought and behavior that fuel substance use, particularly in the context of trauma exposure and co-occurring mental health conditions.

The program is tailored to men, including veterans, young adults, older adults, court-ordered participants, and men living with HIV. Services are trauma-informed throughout, with attention to dual diagnosis presentations that combine substance use with PTSD, depression, or anxiety. Accessibility provisions extend to Deaf and hard-of-hearing participants, and telehealth options expand access during outpatient phases when men are returning to home, work, or supervised release.

Financial access is a defining feature: Freedom House accepts Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, state insurance, self-pay, sliding-scale arrangements, and financial assistance. This mix reflects CCFCS’s mission to serve vulnerable populations regardless of ability to pay, and it positions Freedom House as an option for men whose insurance situation often blocks them from private rehab.
