Established in 1986, Chrysalis House is one of the few residential recovery centers in Maryland that allows women to live with their children during treatment, removing a major barrier to care. The program accepts both mothers and women without children, offering services at no cost to clients with Medicaid insurance. Applicants must complete detox and be substance-free for at least 5 days prior to admission.
The residential program is certified at ASAM Level 3.3 and provides 24/7 clinical supervision. Each woman receives an individualized care plan that may include medication-assisted treatment (MAT), substance use disorder education, relapse prevention classes, family counseling, and on-site 12-Step meetings. Additional support includes life skills training, parenting classes, case management, transportation assistance, and on-site infant and child care.
Chrysalis House offers intensive outpatient (ASAM 2.1) and standard outpatient (ASAM 1.0) programs for graduates or as stand-alone care. Individualized plans include counseling, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), relapse prevention, drug testing, and referrals for housing, employment, and community resources. These flexible programs help women maintain recovery, build stability, and stay connected to essential clinical and peer support while transitioning to independent living.
