New LifeFoundation
Areas we serve
New Life Foundation is based in Neamatpur, on Chittaranjan Road — a short drive from Asansol. Families come to us from across West Bengal, Jharkhand, Bihar and Odisha. Where the journey is long, we come and get you.
Neamatpur, Asansol, Kulti, Chirkunda, Raniganj, Andal, Burnpur and the neighbouring wards — most families come across in the morning and go home by evening.
Where a family cannot travel, we can. We arrange pickup from Kolkata, Dhanbad, Ranchi, Patna, Bhubaneswar and every stop between them. Say the town, we will work it out.
If a centre closer to home is a better fit — a hospital detox first, or a de-addiction unit under state health — we say so plainly. Your recovery matters more than our admission list.
Where we are
The red marker on the map is Neamatpur, on the West Bengal side of the Jharkhand border. From there, our service radius covers the shaded region — a walk-in corridor around the centre, pickup routes to every state capital, and referrals to trusted partners further out.
How to think about distance
Recovery does not wait for a map. But it helps to know what the first day looks like from where you are sitting now.
You live in Neamatpur, Kulti, Chirkunda, Raniganj, Andal, Asansol or Burnpur. Come at 9. Sit for the first hour. Go home at 6. Come again tomorrow, or twice a week, or every day for a while — the counsellor and you will decide.
Common: Alcohol, ganja, gutka, tablets.
You are in Kolkata, Durgapur, Bardhaman, Dhanbad, Bokaro, Ranchi, Jamshedpur, or any town in the four states. Call the number. Tell us the address, the person's state, and one or two dates that could work. We come and get them.
Common: Brown sugar, cough syrup dependence, mixed use.
Sometimes the honest answer is: there is a good de-addiction unit in your district hospital, or a trusted centre we know an hour from your house. If that fits better than a five-hour drive to us, we say so — and give you the name and number.
Common: Detox that needs a hospital first, then day support.
Every city we serve
If your town is not on this list, it does not mean we cannot help. It means we should talk. Call the number — we will tell you plainly what the best next step is. Every page on this site is on the sitemap.
Our home state. Most walk-in families come from here. Bengali is spoken all day at the centre.
A short drive across the border. Pickups from Dhanbad, Bokaro and Ranchi are regular. Hindi at the centre.
Families reach us by train through Asansol or Dhanbad. Pickup is arranged from the nearest station or the door.
Longer journey, usually by train through Kharagpur or Tatanagar. Pickup is arranged in advance.
We are not a hospital. We are not the police. We are not a mental hospital. For a medical emergency, a fit, or someone who will not wake — go to a hospital first, then call. For a child at risk, call the child welfare number in your district. For a person threatening harm, call the police.
What we are: a day-and-family programme for people who use, and the households around them. Since 2018.
