Reach for Recovery is a cost effective, fully integrated, community focused wellness and recovery support program designed to support individuals in recovering from co-occurring and/or substance use disorders for individuals that are residents of Somerset County. We provide supportive services based on each participant’s recovery needs to support them in achieving and maintaining long-term recovery.

R4R embraces the Eight Dimensions of Wellness to inform recovery planning and delivery of services.  Richard Hall Community Mental Health Center is able to provide these valuable services due to the STAR Grant and the Division of Mental Health & Addiction (DMHAS) Chapter 51 Grant to provide Wellness and recovery coordination services.

The STAR Grant is targeted specifically to those struggling with an Opiate use disorders and the goal is to reduce the use of opiates over the course of one year.  The Star Grant aims to increasing linkage to co-occurring and MAT (Medicated Assisted Treatment) and access to recovery support services to Somerset County residents.  This program utilizes the strength of Peer Recovery specialists with lived experience to assist those in the process of recovery.

R4R has been an pivotal community partner in the Operation Helping Hand (OHH) initiative run by the Somerset County Prosecutor’s office. The OHH Initiative is a program where law enforcement plays an integral part in identifying individuals with substance use disorders and together with community partners serves as a point of entry into treatment and/or recovery support services.  By conducting door-to-door outreach or by deploying the NEW mobile van, Somerset County’s OHH’s goal during each encounter is to have law enforcement, accompanied by recovery support specialists, engage residents in need by providing on-the-spot referrals to treatment and other resources.”
