Supportive Living - Shared Apartment Dwellings

by NYS OASAS with accommodations for men and women. Supportive Living
residents share apartment responsibilities, as well as, receive counseling
in life skills, educational, and vocational training. Work readiness groups,

History:
The building was built circa 1950 as the nurse's quarters for The Hospital
For the Incurables. The only other structure on the Addictions Care Campus
was a garage, which was used for ambulances and other vehicles. The Community
Education Training Center was built on that site in 2002. In 1976, Father
Peter Young obtained the 90 McCarty Avenue property and donated it to
the Albany Citizens Council on Alcoholism. The ACCA opened a 12-bed halfway
house for alcoholic men. In 2001, the building was closed and the clients
moved to the new 24-bed halfway house across the driveway.
The
Reilly House:
The Reilly House is a transitional residential program for men in recovery
from alcohol and drugs. Admission is on a case-by-case basis but clients
must have completed an OASAS licensed Community Residences Program.
The Reilly House has 12 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, two living rooms, a library,
a country kitchen, dining room and laundry room.
