Outpatient Substance Use Disorder (SUD)
We offer outpatient, American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) Level 1 services for clients with a substance use disorder treatment need.
Clients receive one (1) to eight (8) hours of services per week based on their medically assessed need, and in accordance with their individualized and specific treatment plan. Outpatient treatment duration varies, but generally lasts up to one hundred and eighty (180) days. Treatment and supports can continue long-term when the treatment plan indicates it is needed for clients who need long-term disease management.
Medication-Assisted Treatment
Our MAT program will target specific subsets of the Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) population including the chronically homeless, mentally ill, and veterans. The program is part of a federal initiative through the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).
The MAT program will be prescribing SUBOXONE (buprenorphine and naloxone) in combination with a comprehensive set of OUD-related whole-person care services to eligible program participants.
These services include enrollment in Peer Pathways and connection with our SUD services. Our Peer Pathways program provides psychoeducation services and case management like services.
