Our Services
Treatment Services
At SCADD, every journey begins with understanding. Our programs include thorough screenings to identify substance use and mental health needs, ensuring each person receives care that fits their unique story. Our compassionate team embraces diversity in all its forms — honoring every individual’s race, culture, faith, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, and ability. Guided by trauma-informed care, we create a safe and supportive space where healing, hope, and second chances can take root.
Recovery Services
Recovery doesn’t end when treatment is done. It’s a lifelong journey. SCADD’s recovery services are here before, during, and after clinical treatment to help individuals navigate challenges and stay focused on their goals. We work to remove barriers, build confidence, and empower people to stay engaged in their recovery. Support can include help accessing treatment, recognizing early signs of relapse, securing safe housing, wellness check-ins, and connecting with a supportive community.
