Outpatient substance use support
Substance Use Disorder — Level 1
Learn about outpatient substance use treatment and whether Level 1 may be an appropriate starting point.
Understanding the program
What is this service?
Level 1 generally refers to outpatient substance use treatment. It can provide a framework for addressing substance use concerns while a person continues with daily responsibilities. The exact services, session frequency, and admission requirements for ABJ’s Level 1 program are not specified here; these should be discussed directly with the team.
Who it serves
People whose assessed needs may be suited to outpatient substance use treatment. A program label alone does not establish eligibility or the right level of care.
What to expect
Your first conversation is an opportunity to understand options. Actual care arrangements are confirmed with ABJ.
- 1
An assessment discussion to understand needs and whether outpatient care is suitable.
- 2
Information about the treatment formats, scheduling, and participation expectations available at ABJ.
- 3
A conversation about goals, existing supports, and how changing needs may be reviewed.
Potential benefits
Depending on the person, their needs, and the care provided, goals may include:
- Structure for working on recovery goals
- Opportunities to strengthen coping and decision-making skills
- Connection to appropriate treatment and support options
Experiences and outcomes vary. These are possible goals, not promises of a particular result.
