What it reported doing in 2025
Women's community residence: formerly known as the merrick community residence (mcr), the women's community residence situated next to fairview community residence, at 8 clapham street, binghamton, ny is a 20-bed community residence for women and women with children intended to bridge the gap between intensive treatment and independent living. In 2015, oasas approved a new 3.6 million dollar 18-bed community residence designed to accommodate 16 adults and 2 children. After completion, 2 more beds were added increasing the capacity to 18 adults and 2 children. The program continues to serve indigent women with a primary diagnosis of alcoholism and/or chemical dependence who are often homeless prior to admission. While at the community residence, each client is supported by a case manager who assists with a range of issues consistent with the individual's recovery plan. All clients participate in weekly group, individual counseling sessions, and are assisted in taking the steps necessary to transition to supportive living or independent community life. This process is enhanced by participation in a variety of in-house life skills trainings intended to provide individuals with the skills and knowledge necessary to become self-sufficient and remain substance free.
