New Frontier Treatment Center

24/7 emergency phone 775-427-4040 – live clinician (MFT/LADC) not an automated system – includes arrangements for meals and food from emergency food pantry.  This is the emergency number that handles a number of inquiries including those clients who are suicidal or at severe risk (welfare checks by local law enforcement done to ensure individual safety).

New Frontier is licensed as a 28 bed residential facility through the Nevada State Health Division, certified for levels of care provided through the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Agency (SAPTA) and nationally accredited through the Joint Commission on Accredited Healthcare Organizations (TJC).  Our residential staff has been trained and certified as detox technicians by the State of Nevada.

New Frontier has some bilingual sites and services available.
