Community Connections Outpatient Addiction Services (OAS) is an ARC/DBH approved substance use treatment provider. Recognizing the complexity of addiction, OAS utilizes Community Connections' expertise in mental health and trauma recovery to provide sophisticated clinical services geared toward empowering clients. Clients are able to discover the roots of their substance addiction and how they can attain sustained recovery to meet their goals. Addiction and recovery are not just about a substance, but about a complex person with multiple concerns including the impact of mental health symptoms, developmental traumas, family relationships, environmental factors, and other obstacles to recovery. OAS incorporates a holistic approach to recovery. We teach relapse prevention skills, emphasize lifestyle modifications, and encourage network and family involvement. OAS provides person-centered and curriculum-based treatment and a diverse staff that brings a wide range of life experience, work experience, and education to the recovery process.
