What the SAMHSA Record Shows About Urban Ounce of Prevention

Urban Ounce of Prevention is a substance use treatment operated by Private non-profit organization in Akron, Ohio. 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. 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 1735 South Hawkins Avenue, Akron, OH 44320.

On the services side, the facility self-reports 9 distinct service lines (Co-occurring disorder treatment, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Intensive outpatient, Mental health services, Motivational interviewing, Outpatient, Substance use treatment, Telehealth, Trauma-informed care), 3 substance or condition categories treated (Alcohol, General substance use disorders, Opioids), and 10 clinical treatment approaches (Anger management, Brief intervention, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Contingency management/motivational incentives, Matrix Model, Motivational interviewing, Relapse prevention, Substance use disorder counseling, Telemedicine/telehealth therapy, Trauma-related counseling). It serves 5 specific population groups (Adults, Men, Persons with co-occurring disorders, Women, Young adults) with 1 language of care (Sign language services for the deaf and hard of hearing). 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, plus 4 specific payment methods enumerated in the survey (Cash or self-payment, Federal, or any government funding for substance use treatment programs, Medicaid, SAMHSA funding/block grants).

Urban Ounce of Prevention reports 33 attributes across services, populations, payment, and language, in line with the Ohio statewide median of 33 (855 facilities listed).
