About Merakey
Merakey is a non-profit organization that provides developmental, behavioral health, and education services to communities across 12 states. They have multiple locations in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania including this one on Knights Road. Their addiction recovery services include intensive and general outpatient programs, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and rehousing services for unhoused individuals.
Intensive and Outpatient Programs in Pennsylvania
Clients with substance use disorders can enroll in either the outpatient program or the intensive outpatient program. Both of these programs give you access to individual counseling and group therapy sessions. The IOP groups will meet several times a week for people that need more frequent and consistent support.
I like that they discuss important topics in the group sessions like dealing with difficult emotions and handling triggers.
MAT for People in Philly
Merakey Knights provides MAT to support clients with serious withdrawal symptoms. They will prescribe FDA-approved medication like Methadone, Suboxone or Vivitrol. MAT is often an add-on service to the IOP or OP.
I appreciate that they have multiple medication options to suit the different needs of their clients.
Rehousing and Diversion Program
Merakey Knights offers outreach programs to folks who are in crisis or require emergency services for substance use or co-occurring disorders.
They also work together with the Philadelphia Police Department to offer addiction recovery services as an alternative to more police engagement. Their rehousing program helps adults who are experiencing homelessness due to addiction return to their family or friends’ home.
All of these programs serve the most vulnerable communities who need more than drug rehab.
