Chautauqua County Dept Mental Hygiene

They provide outpatient and telemedicine. The nearest alternative is in Cassadaga, 9.6 miles away, if you want something to compare it against.

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Dunkirk offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

They treat adolescents. A program built for a 17 year old is not the same program as the adult one, so ask which of the two they offer in Dunkirk.

They offer a pregnancy program. Call rather than wait, because this is the one case where timing changes the options and Dunkirk may not have a second place set up for it.

Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Dunkirk has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.

They treat both. A diagnosis left untreated while the substance use is treated is the usual reason a first attempt does not hold, and Cassadaga is the nearest place to try instead if this one does not fit.

What comes next is the question to ask on the way in, not on the way out. The first weeks back carry the highest risk, so what is booked for them matters more than the program length. Book the first appointment after discharge while you are still in the program, not afterward.

Most programs will say plainly whether they sit on a court's approved list. What gets reported is attendance and completion, not what you said in a session, unless the order says otherwise. Tell the program about the deadline in the order at the start, not near it.
