Questions people ask about Center for Community Alternatives

What programs does Center for Community Alternatives offer?

They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and New York is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

Can you detox at Center for Community Alternatives?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Brooklyn, under a mile away.

Are there free support meetings in Brooklyn?

Brooklyn has 626 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

How many options are within driving distance?

The nearest other center is a few streets away, in Brooklyn, and there are 8 inside 14 miles.

Is there a residential program at Center for Community Alternatives?

They provide outpatient care and not a residential stay, so there is no bed to wait for. The nearest place with one is in Brooklyn, under a mile away.

Do I have to tell them it is court ordered?

It is the same treatment with reporting attached, and most of the programs listed here take referrals. Completion paperwork is routine, and asking for it at the end is normal rather than awkward. Confirm the program is on the approved list before the first session rather than after it.

What happens to the medication I already take?

Bring the list and bring the containers, and expect a prescriber to go through both. Whether a program employs its own prescriber is a concrete difference worth asking about early. Keep whoever prescribes for you informed rather than assuming a handover happens by itself.

Who has access to my records?

Nothing goes out without an authorization you sign, and that authorization can be narrow. Who you authorize, and what they are authorized to hear, are two separate choices on the same form. Ask what a program would say if somebody rang it asking about you.
