    How To Access Publicly Funded Addiction Treatment in Delaware

    Treatment works and recovery is possible. Start your recovery journey today.

    • Call 911 for medical emergencies
    • Call or text 988 for mental health or addiction-related crises

    If you do not have health insurance or have insurance that doesn’t fully meet your healthcare needs, you may be eligible for free addiction treatment services through Delaware’s Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health (DSAMH).

    If you have insurance, please visit www.TreatmentConnection.com to find a provider that is right for you.

    To find publicly funded treatment:

    • Call the Delaware Hope Line 1-833-9-HOPEDE
    • Call a treatment program directly (see the table of programs below)
    • Ask your physician to make a referral through the Delaware Treatment and Referral Network (DTRN)/OpenBeds.
    • Visit or call your local DSAMH Bridge Clinic. Bridge Clinic staff will conduct an assessment to determine what treatment is right for you. Bridge Clinics can offer short-term outpatient treatment, counseling, peer support, care coordination, and same or next day buprenorphine treatment, before linking you with a long-term treatment option.

    Most addiction treatment programs start with a comprehensive assessment. This will help your addiction specialist or other clinician understand your needs and work with you to customize a treatment plan. To get an assessment, call or visit a DSAMH Bridge Clinic or call the other programs listed on the table below.

    What types of programs are available?

    • Withdrawal management, formerly known as “detox,” help individuals stop using substances in a safe outpatient or inpatient environment.
    • Residential treatment programs provide counseling, peer support, and structured programming in a residential environment.
    • Outpatient programs provide clinic-based services, including individual and group counseling, peer support, case management, and medications to help achieve recovery.
    • Formerly known as “sober living” programs provide a place to stay and a supportive community while individuals participate in outpatient treatment.

    What services do addiction treatment programs include?

    • These highly effective medications – such as methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone – help stop withdrawal symptoms and cravings and are usually prescribed or administered in a clinic setting. The program directory on page 3 indicates which programs provide MOUD with the ℞ symbol.
    • Trained professionals help you gain access to medical, social, educational services, and other resources.
    • Peer Recovery Specialists support you in your recovery from addiction, mental health conditions, or both. Peer Recovery Specialists are specially trained individuals who have maintained their own successful recovery and help others through shared understanding, respect, and mutual empowerment.
    • Professional counselors help you identify goals and potential solutions to problems you are facing, improve your communication and coping skills, strengthen your self-esteem, and help you make changes in your life that support your mental wellbeing and recovery.
