New Directions for Women - Costa Mesa, California

I can't thank New Directions for Women enough for the care they provided my sister during her battle with heroin addiction. From the first phone call we made, they met us with kindness and compassion, at a time when we had quite honestly lost all hope.

Their focus on family involvement was pivotal, offering us support and guidance to heal together. The community atmosphere helped my sister to confront her challenges and embrace lasting change. She still has contact with some of the women she went through the program with! Today, my sister is thriving in her sobriety, thanks to the foundation laid by New Directions for Women. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of support on their journey to recovery.

I was lucky enough to enjoy a tour of the NDFW facility from Gabrielle. From the moment I walked through the gate I could feel the healing energy of the grounds. At every turn I saw beautiful artwork with inspirational quotes and butterflies. My favorite feature was the fish tank full of every type you could imagine. You could tell that each and every women who walks through their doors are well cared for and have a safe place to heal and recover!

At the end of my treatment, it was hard to leave. That's how great this facility is. The staff, accommodations and program is top tier. I'm so grateful for the help I received here. Thank you.

New Directions for Women has been a shining example in the treatment center community as a safe haven for women to get well with dignity and respect. Not only are they breaking the cycle of addiction with women, but they are rescuing generations of people through their work with children and pregnant women. There is nothing more beautiful and touching than seeing a family be reunited and strengthened through recovery. New Directions does that for families on a daily basis. Watching children being loved and cared for by a community of women is extremely healing and can change a person's heart.

If you need help and are looking for a treatment center it's important to find a place that's a good fit for you. I recommend people to NDFW for many reasons, one of the most prominent being the amazing resources it has for mothers and children which is unfortunately rare in this industry. In addition, New Directions is in the middle of one of the strongest recovery communities in the country: Orange County California, where there are over 3,000 12-step meetings a week! They are located in a serene environment that supports healing and growth. And they have a beautiful new home for the women that has been made possible by an extremely supportive fellowship who believe in their mission.

New Directions can help you every step of the way as you navigate early recovery. It is a scary process to try and change your life, but it is possible, and New Directions has guided so many women and their families through it with love and compassion. New Directions for Women is transforming lives and transforming the treatment industry with quality care and dedicated staff. This place is sacred for me, and I am forever grateful to be a part of it.

New Directions is a home away from home for women looking to find sobriety. Their facilities are built on the love and dedication of Becky, Tania and the expert staff. I can't recommend this beautiful space more... from meditation to yoga to movie nights and pool days; New Directions truly highlights the beauty of sober living. One of the most incredible features is that New Directions welcomes moms with their young children with open arms. The family feel is tangible the moment you walk in and once you meet one lovely woman after another you don't want to leave! If you are looking for a warm environment to transition to a cleaner life for you or your loved one you couldn't have found a better place! :))

My visit to the New Directions facility was extremely warm, open, and caring. Tania and Emili are passionate about creating an uplifting community that thrives on all areas of healing. It feels like home. Women share rooms that smell of aromatherapy and there is inspirational art work throughout the halls. Another special quality about this organization is that it is open to mothers with children. New Directions offers more than recovery, they offer a sister hood.

I visited New Directions for Women as a representative from another community outreach program. I was blown away by the welcoming and serene environment. All of the staff I interacted with seemed to sincerely care about their work. Communication with the Director of Development and Public Relations were easy and responsive. Tania took us on a tour of the campus and we were in awe of the service provided to women. We will be recommending New Directions in the future to individuals in need. Thank you for what you do for our community!
