Reentry and transitional housing in New Mexico
Official NMCD housing information, help lines and supervision offices, with a city or ZIP search. Official sources only; no paid listings.
Check with the parole or probation officer first. Any address has to be approved before the move. Being on an official list doesn't mean a home has room, takes your situation, or is approved for a specific person.
NMCD Probation and Parole regions offer programs including housing assistance, substance use treatment and mental health counseling. Officers refer people based on their needs.
Southern New Mexico (Region III) has several halfway houses, plus community corrections, treatment and drug court programs.
