What the SAMHSA Record Shows About La Frontera Center

La Frontera Center is a substance use & mental health operated by Private non-profit organization in Tucson, Arizona. The facility's N-SUMHSS record lists 2 primary care modalities (residential, telehealth), 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. The full postal address on file is 1601 East Apache Park Place, Tucson, AZ 85714.

On the services side, the facility self-reports 6 distinct service lines (Co-occurring disorder treatment, Hospital inpatient, Mental health treatment, Substance use treatment, Suicide prevention services, Telehealth), 1 substance or condition category treated (General substance use disorders), and 5 clinical treatment approaches (Abnormal involuntary movement scale, Activity therapy, Group therapy, Integrated Mental and Substance Use Disorder treatment, Telemedicine/telehealth therapy). It serves 13 specific population groups (Justice-involved individuals, Persons affected by intimate partner violence, Persons experiencing first-episode psychosis, Persons with DUI/DWI, Persons with HIV/AIDS, Persons with PTSD, Persons with co-occurring disorders, Persons with eating disorders, Persons with serious mental illness, Persons with traumatic brain injury, and 3 more) 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 Medicare, plus 3 specific payment methods enumerated in the survey (IHS/Tribal/Urban (ITU) funds, Medicare, State mental health agency (or equivalent) funds).

La Frontera Center reports 29 attributes across services, populations, payment, and language, in line with the Arizona statewide median of 34 (516 facilities listed).

This page is a factual directory summary, not medical advice, clinical endorsement, or a guarantee of admission. For any acute crisis or active substance-use emergency, call the SAMHSA National Helpline at 1-800-662-4357 or the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline before visiting any facility.
