Hennepin County Medical Center Addiction Medicine Program

Hennepin County Medical Center’s Addiction Medicine Program is a state-licensed outpatient facility in Minneapolis providing comprehensive treatment for alcohol, opioid, and other substance use disorders. The program offers medication-assisted treatment alongside cognitive behavioral therapy and group therapy, addressing both addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions. The facility is committed to accessible, culturally responsive care that serves the diverse communities of Minneapolis.

Medication-Assisted Treatment for Opioid Recovery

The Addiction Medicine Program specializes in medication-assisted treatment for individuals struggling with opioid addiction. Staff provide both methadone and buprenorphine as evidence-based options, paired with counseling and behavioral support tailored to each patient’s recovery goals and circumstances.

Treatment sessions combine medication management with therapeutic work to address underlying drivers of addiction and build sustainable recovery skills. Patients work with the clinical team to find the right medication and dosage, then attend regular appointments to monitor progress and adjust treatment as needed. This integrated approach helps individuals stabilize their lives, reduce cravings, and work toward long-term wellness.

Specialized Care for Women in Recovery

The facility operates a dedicated Women’s Rehab program with specialized services for pregnant and postpartum women seeking addiction treatment. This includes coordinated medical care, mental health support, and parenting resources designed to support mothers and their infants through recovery.

Culturally Responsive Services

Recognizing the unique needs of Minneapolis’s Hmong community, the program offers cross-cultural services and Hmong language support. This ensures that cultural background and communication needs never become barriers to accessing quality addiction treatment.

Access to Care

The Addiction Medicine Program serves patients from Minneapolis and surrounding areas through outpatient services at its location on South 8th Street. The facility accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and most major insurance plans, with sliding-scale fees and self-pay options available to support access across income levels.
