What the SAMHSA Record Shows About Center for Community Alternatives

Center for Community Alternatives is a substance use treatment operated by Private non-profit organization in Brooklyn, New York. The facility's N-SUMHSS record lists 2 primary care modalities (outpatient, telehealth), which shapes both how treatment is delivered and how intake is scheduled. Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is reported as available, meaning FDA-approved medications such as methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone may be combined with counseling for opioid or alcohol use disorder. The full postal address on file is 25 Chapel Street, Room 701, Brooklyn, NY 11201.

On the services side, the facility self-reports 8 distinct service lines (Cognitive behavioral therapy, Medication-assisted treatment (MAT), Motivational interviewing, Outpatient, Substance use treatment, Suicide prevention services, Telehealth, Trauma-informed care), 3 substance or condition categories treated (Alcohol, General substance use disorders, Opioids), and 9 clinical treatment approaches (Anger management, Brief intervention, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Contingency management/motivational incentives, Motivational interviewing, Relapse prevention, Substance use disorder counseling, Telemedicine/telehealth therapy, Trauma-related counseling). It serves 4 specific population groups (Adolescents, Men, Persons affected by intimate partner violence, Women) with 1 language of care (Spanish). Those figures give a rough signal of programmatic breadth, a higher number of approaches and populations usually indicates more structured clinical programming rather than a single-modality operation. Payment-wise, the record confirms Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, a sliding-fee scale, payment assistance, plus 6 specific payment methods enumerated in the survey (Cash or self-payment, Federal, or any government funding for substance use treatment programs, Medicaid, Medicare, Private health insurance, State-financed health insurance plan other than Medicaid).
