After treatment, Aliza had nowhere safe to go. With the support of her treatment team, community partners, and Tara Homes, she found stability, structure — and belief in herself again.

Connections that lead to independent living
Pathway navigation connects residents to treatment, workforce and employment partners, building a clear path from recovery to independence.
Pathway Navigation
A coordinated system of support
Recovery does not happen in isolation. It requires a coordinated pathway of support.
Lasting recovery is built through a coordinated system of support, including structure, continued care, employment and community. Pathway navigation connects residents with the treatment, workforce and employment partners that make each next step possible.
Many individuals leave treatment without a clear path forward when stability matters most. We are committed to changing that.

How navigation helps
From recovery to a working life
Continued care
Connections to treatment partners, including the mission-driven treatment centers that refer women ready to reclaim their lives.
Workforce readiness
Access to workforce services that help residents prepare for and pursue employment.
Employment pathways
Links to employment partners in a region that is home to major employers.
Community partnerships
A village of support: philanthropic partners, volunteers and community allies across Connecticut.


Why navigation matters
The support exists. Too often, it exists in silos.
Housing, treatment, financial support and workforce services each help, but a woman rebuilding her life shouldn’t have to stitch them together alone.
When the right support comes together, a pathway forward begins to take shape. That is the Recovery Stabilization Pathway: coordinated support from treatment toward independent living.
