Residential Mental Health Care Focused on Stability, Insight & Daily Functioning

Schizophrenia is one of the most misunderstood mental health conditions — and often one of the most isolating. If you or someone you love is struggling with hallucinations, delusions, or disorganized thinking, it may feel like life has spiraled out of control.

At First Light Recovery, we specialize in residential treatment for adults with schizophrenia. Our program is designed to help clients stabilize, regain daily structure, and work toward recovery in a supportive, compassionate, and non-institutional setting.

Understanding Schizophrenia

Many individuals with schizophrenia feel disconnected from reality, unable to trust themselves or others — and often misunderstood by society.
