Fairweather Lodge is a private, nonprofit residential treatment center located in Greenland, New Hampshire, dedicated to providing support for adults facing severe and persistent mental and behavioral health challenges. This center stands out for its welcoming, homelike environment, offering 24/7 support to individuals who are struggling not only with mental illness or substance use disorder but also with housing insecurity. The mission of Fairweather Lodge is to ensure that anyone experiencing homelessness or instability has a supportive place to live while receiving comprehensive care that addresses multiple aspects of health and well-being.
One of the key features of Fairweather Lodge is its person-centered, integrated care model. This approach targets the complex interplay of conditions that frequently accompany severe mental illness, such as substance use, trauma, anxiety, and physical health issues like chronic pain. Residents have access to a broad suite of services, including medication assisted treatment (MAT), certified recovery support, psychiatric care, and primary medical care. The team at Fairweather Lodge includes licensed counselors, nurses, doctors, and dedicated support staff, all of whom collaborate to deliver individualized treatment plans that are adjusted as residents’ needs evolve.
Beyond direct clinical care, Fairweather Lodge places a strong emphasis on helping residents secure long-term stability. Recognizing that recovery extends far beyond immediate treatment, the team incorporates housing specialists who work closely with residents to obtain vouchers and other forms of assistance for affordable, permanent housing. Additionally, the program supports residents as they transition out of the lodge, connecting them with essential services such as social security benefits, food assistance programs, Medicaid, education opportunities, and job training resources. This holistic approach aims to break the cycle of homelessness and support residents in achieving sustained independence and recovery.
Fairweather Lodge’s commitment to its residents does not end when they leave the program. The staff remain connected to discharged residents, offering lifelong support and guidance to help them maintain their progress and manage any new challenges that arise. This ongoing relationship ensures continuity of care and reinforces the lodge’s dedication to each individual’s long-term well-being, making it a cornerstone of compassionate, comprehensive mental health and recovery services in the greater Eastern Rockingham County area.
