Gray Haven Napa is not a locked facility, but is a secure facility designed for the protection of its residents and neighbors alike. It is not a detention facility. Residents are admitted voluntarily, under terms and conditions defined by the court, their probation officer, and Gray Haven admissions standards. Residents may be individuals on probation or parole. Incarceration and institutionalization often diminishes familiarity with basic skills like shopping, using public transit or going to the bank. Our program staff will work to restore and/or build necessary skills, which means helping them as they navigate the local community and experience how they themselves can contribute. Each individual’s ability to access the community independently will be determined by medical and psychiatric staff, and their progress will be closely monitored. New residents can only leave the premises with a staff member for the first 30-days. The next phase is leaving with another responsible resident and their time out is closely monitored. No resident may leave the facility without someone accompanying them for the first 60-days, and thereafter only if staff knows where they are going and when they will return. No groups of more than three residents will congregate at the nearby parks. The ultimate goal, of course, is that they will learn to work and live independently without supervision. Residents risk expulsion from the program if they violate program rules. Napa County residents receive priority placement.
