The year-long residential program will have an Afro-centric focus and follow a therapeutic community model that provides individual counseling, group counseling and peer-to-peer support. The program will also address the issues of domestic violence and trauma, which often complicate a women's recovery. "We are extremely excited to introduce My Sister's House at Dimock, " said Ruth Kelley, The Dimock Center's Chief Behavioral Health Officer. "There is a need for comprehensive substance abuse care for women in our community and we are committed to addressing this problem." The Goddard Building on Dimock's campus in Roxbury will be the new home to the program, which will provide care for 22 women. Dimock anticipates opening My Sister's House in the late fall of 2010. The addition of My Sister's House will expand The Dimock Center's already comprehensive residential addiction recovery services and enable Dimock to serve more than 70 men and women in recovery.
