Welcome to the AFHS Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Outpatient Program, a specialized offering designed for individuals navigating the nuances of sustaining recovery. Tailored to those who have achieved success in more intensive programs such as our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), our SUD Outpatient Program provides continued support for individuals seeking to maintain and build upon their progress.

​

Key Program Components:

1. Gradual Transition from Intensive Programs: Many individuals who have experienced success in more intensive programs, such as our IOP, find the AFHS SUD Outpatient Program to be the ideal next step in their recovery journey. It serves as a supportive and flexible bridge for those transitioning from more structured environments to greater independence in managing their recovery.

2. Comprehensive Group and Individual Support: Our program offers a balanced combination of group work and individual therapy. Group sessions provide a supportive community where participants can share experiences, learn from one another, and develop coping skills. Individual therapy sessions, tailored to your unique needs, offer personalized guidance to address specific challenges and goals.

3. Medication-Assisted Recovery Options: The AFHS SUD Outpatient Program is equipped to provide medication-assisted recovery options, including Vivitrol and Suboxone. Our experienced medical professionals collaborate with participants to determine the most effective medication-assisted interventions, fostering a comprehensive approach to substance use treatment.

4. Access to Mental Health Prescriber: Recognizing the interconnected nature of mental health and substance use challenges, participants in our program have access to a mental health prescriber. This ensures that both aspects of an individual's well-being are addressed within an integrated and cohesive treatment plan.

5. Flexible Therapy Frequency: Understanding that everyone's journey is unique, therapy and group work frequency can be tailored to meet your specific needs. This flexibility allows for a personalized approach to treatment, accommodating the evolving requirements of each participant as they progress in their recovery.
