Robust Prevention Services

One of the aspects of care that really stands out to me is their prevention services. Even if you are actively struggling with substance use, supports like their Syringe Services Program and HIV and hepatitis services can help you better understand how to best take care of yourself, even if you’re not ready to receive treatment yet.

I especially appreciate how their Syringe Service Program is a supportive first point of contact if you are thinking about starting recovery. Through this program, you can get connected to detox services. If you’re not ready for recovery, harm reduction education and opioid safety education is available too.

Different Approaches to Addiction Support Services

They take two approaches to care at this clinic. They can help you work through a personalized addiction recovery plan that you have in place or can also help you get started on a care plan, even if you don’t have a diagnosis yet.

If you have a diagnosed substance use disorder, there’s targeted and intentional counseling including case management where you’ll get pared to the appropriate therapies for recovery. This counseling can be supported by medication assisted management to help you manage cravings as well.

You’ll find a host of other services including behavioral health integration, support groups, and access to recovery housing among other supports.
