Details: Catherine Martin INN (CMI) provides communal, long term housing for homeless, male veterans who have completed substance abuse rehabilitation programs and have maintained sobriety for at least nine months. The CMI program focuses on education and skills for future independence. The veterans receive case management services from social workers who assist them in achieving goals of self-sufficiency. These case management services include life-skills training, home management, budgeting and educational/vocational training. Referrals are also given for counseling when needed. The rooms are offered at a reduced rental rate to give the veterans an opportunity to focus on their goals. The INN works closely with the VA in Northport, as well as other veteran agencies, in connecting the CMI veterans to the necessary resources.
