Alexandria Community Services Board Opioid Treatment Program

The Alexandria Department of Community and Human Services’s Medication Assisted Treatment for Opioids program provides addiction recovery services for adults in Alexandria, Virginia. Their programs include medication-assisted treatment, outpatient care, and aftercare services. Specialized support is available for pregnant women, people with HIV/AIDS, and those with co-occurring addictions and mental health disorders.

Their medication assisted treatment program allows you to complete detox under the guidance of a professional medical team. Providers can administer FDA-approved addiction medications. These are methadone and Suboxone, which relieve your withdrawal, mitigate drug cravings, and lower the risk of relapse.

They also provide outpatient services through a program called Matrix. Treatments at the Matrix last 16 weeks and incorporate one-on-one and group counseling sessions, peer groups, relapse prevention training, family education, job counseling, and related services. Aftercare support may include connections to other behavioral health groups within the DCHS or greater community.

They work with most commercial insurance providers. Speak with your provider to check your coverage because out-of-network benefits can vary.
