About Connecticut Renaissance

CT Renaissance opened its doors in 1967 with one of the State’s earliest outpatient drug treatment programs.  Over the past five decades, the organization has expanded to provide services in a variety of settings including outpatient, community and residential programs. While the organization’s roots are in substance use treatment, we have grown to provide behavioral health, addiction and criminal justice services. Our outpatient, community and residential programs serve adults and adolescents throughout Fairfield and New Haven counties.

We are here to help you Reclaim Your Life!

Always striving to keep abreast of best practices, CT Renaissance utilizes evidence-based treatment modalities throughout our services.  Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Life After Incarceration are just some examples of the proven models used in our programs. Every person served at CT Renaissance receives individually tailored, personal care.  Our staff work together with each client to determine their goals and work to help each individual reclaim their life.

Our CARF accreditation certifies that our services meet internationally accepted standards of excellence. Third-party payers, governmental agencies, and the public at-large recognize CARF accreditation as a demonstration of accountability that promotes excellence in your services.
