What the SAMHSA Record Shows About Gavin Foundation

Gavin Foundation is a substance use treatment operated by Private non-profit organization in Dorchester Center, Massachusetts. The facility's N-SUMHSS record lists 1 primary care modality (residential), which shapes both how treatment is delivered and how intake is scheduled. MAT is not listed in the current record; callers seeking medication-assisted options should verify directly or check the rankings pages for nearby providers that do offer MAT. No street address is listed in the SAMHSA record; the facility's location on file is Dorchester Center, MA 02124.

On the services side, the facility self-reports 5 distinct service lines (12-step facilitation, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Motivational interviewing, Residential, Substance use treatment), 3 substance or condition categories treated (Alcohol, General substance use disorders, Opioids), and 7 clinical treatment approaches (12-step facilitation, Anger management, Brief intervention, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Motivational interviewing, Relapse prevention, Substance use disorder counseling). It serves 3 specific population groups (Adults, Women, Young adults) with 0 languages of care. 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, private insurance, plus 3 specific payment methods enumerated in the survey (Cash or self-payment, Medicaid, Private health insurance).

Gavin Foundation's SAMHSA record documents fewer attributes (22) than the typical Massachusetts facility (state median: 34, out of 415 listed statewide). That is common for smaller or newly-surveyed programs and does not mean fewer services are actually offered, it means fewer were self-reported to SAMHSA.
