Palladia, Inc. is a social services organization in New York City, working with individuals and families challenged by addiction, homelessness, AIDS, domestic violence, poverty, and trauma. Established in 1970, Palladia became known as Project Return Foundation until 2002. The organization began as a drug treatment facility and evolved to address the concerns of its clients, develop services such as household protection, outpatient drug treatment programs, childcare programs, AIDS outreach, alternatives to detention, and temporary and permanent housing. Today Palladia serves more than 1300 clients every day.
Palladia has long focused on women's special needs in care, staging conferences, pioneering ways to bring services to inaccessible clients and develop programs that highlight the relationship between trauma and addiction. Palladia also developed several special programs that encourage relationships between parents who are undergoing treatment and their children.
