Steward House at Silver Hill and Its Connections to Yale
Drawing on its partnership with Yale New Haven Health and the Yale School of Medicine’s Department of Psychiatry, The Steward House blends clinical rigor with restorative living: the facility is small (8 beds), set on a 44-acre wooded estate, with private or semi-private rooms, chef-prepared meals, and amenities designed to reduce daily stressors.
Clients benefit from a transitional living format that gradually reintroduces autonomy and life skills, while still ensuring consistent support and confidentiality. Weekends include family interaction, wellness groups, and opportunities for reflection to support ongoing recovery.
