RENEW HEALTH

Correctional Facilities Program

Expanding Access to Treatment and Recovery Inside New Mexico’s Justice System

Renew Health is proud to launch a new initiative partnering with correctional facilities across New Mexico to expand access to evidence-based addiction treatment and mental health services. Following the passage of Senate Bill 425, all county detention centers are now required to provide Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) and behavioral health support to individuals in custody. Renew Health’s Correctional Facilities Program helps counties meet these requirements by providing comprehensive, medically supervised care both during incarceration and through re-entry into the community.

Our Mission

We believe recovery should not stop at the prison gate. Substance use disorder is a treatable medical condition, and providing care inside correctional settings helps reduce recidivism, improve public safety, and give individuals the opportunity to rebuild their lives with dignity. Our mission is to make evidence-based treatment accessible to every person regardless of circumstance, so that recovery can begin the moment someone is ready.

What the Program Provides

Renew Health offers an integrated model of care designed specifically for justice-involved individuals, including:

  • Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) using FDA-approved medications such as buprenorphine and naltrexone
  • Behavioral Health Counseling focused on trauma, relapse prevention, and personal development
  • Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) to identify and support those at risk
  • Continuity of Care connecting individuals to Renew Health outpatient clinics immediately after release
  • Re-entry Planning and Case Management to ensure stable housing, employment support, and ongoing treatment access

Why It Matters

Providing treatment inside correctional facilities is not just about meeting legal requirements, it’s about saving lives. Studies show that individuals leaving incarceration are at significantly higher risk of overdose and relapse without proper medical care. By starting treatment before release and ensuring a seamless handoff to community-based services, Renew Health helps bridge the gap between incarceration and long-term recovery.

Partner With Renew Health

Renew Health works directly with counties, wardens, and healthcare administrators to implement customized treatment programs that align with SB 425 requirements and national best practices. Our team provides staff training, compliance support, and full program implementation to make the transition to MAT and behavioral health integration as smooth as possible.
