Root Center Breaks Ground On First Residential Treatment Facility

April 18, 2023

Get excited because we are continuing to grow and expand! In March, we broke ground in New Britain on what will be our FIRST residential facility. This facility will replace our former NB Clinic on Whiting Street.



It will be state-of-the-art, and offer patients a beautiful treatment center where they can continue their recovery. Root is committed to helping those who struggle with mental health and addiction because we are stronger together, and recovery is possible!

We anticipate opening the clinic in the summer of 2024. Thank you to all those who attended, including our media partners. Check out this recap from NBC Connecticut to see more on this exciting day.

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!
