The Root Center is proud to announce that our Branford Clinic is now open!

 

On Thursday, September 26th, we had a successful Grand Opening ribbon cutting ceremony for our newest clinic, conveniently located inside of the Stony Creek Medical Center on Business Park Drive.

 

For the first time in Root's history, we are now accepting and treating patients for addiction and mental health care in New Haven County. 

 

This new clinic is located at 6-12 Business Park Drive in Branford. To learn more, please click here (link page) or call our Central Admissions Clinic to learn more at (800) 862-2181.

 

Special thanks to everyone who has supported the Root Center and our mission. Our board members, community legislators and leaders, media partners, and of course, our staff. We know this new facility will go on to help so many patients.

Root Center Hosting First Charity Golf Tournament

By Fathom Member • March 6, 2025
The Root Center is excited to announce our first ever CHARITY GOLF TOURNAMENT! However, this charity golf tournament won’t be to benefit Root… on September 25th, 2025, we will host a charity golf outing at Lyman Orchards in Middlefield, CT, to benefit St. Vincent de Paul Middletown . Root Center feels strongly about nonprofits supporting nonprofits, and we are thankful for the work St. Vincent de Paul Middletown performs to help the residents in our state, particularly in Middletown, where Root Center proudly operates two sites. Many Root Center patients benefit from their critical services, and we are proud to support such an important mission helping some of the most marginalized members of our community. So, dust off those clubs, and get ready to play for a great cause! More information on signing up and sponsoring coming soon!
