CODAC Behavioral Health provides outpatient Opioid Use Disorder treatment and other services for people dealing with a substance use disorder.

Rhode Island’s oldest and largest non-profit, outpatient provider of treatment for Opioid Use Disorder (OUD), CODAC Behavioral Health has seven community-based locations, as well as programming at the Rhode Island Department of Corrections (RI DOC), enabling the non-profit to deliver services wherever needed across the state.

For more than 45 years, CODAC Behavioral Health has worked with individuals, families and communities in RI. We provide comprehensive outpatient and community-based resources to those living and struggling with the challenges of substance use disorder and behavioral healthcare issues. As a result, CODAC designed programs to promote and support recovery. We also help participants acquire the skills necessary to lead healthy and fulfilling lives.

In 2013, CODAC became the first Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) in the United States to be officially recognized as a CMS Health Home. In 2016, all CODAC locations were named the first Centers of Excellence (COEs) for opioid treatment in Rhode Island. The Department of Behavioral Health, Developmental Disabilities and Hospitals (BHDDH) awards this distinction to providers that meet or exceed performance and service standards.

CODAC Behavioral Health has lead the field in implementing programming reflecting the emergent needs in opioid treatment and recovery. Furthermore, we integrate evidence-based and best practice standards into service delivery. As part of our commitment to providing whole person care, CODAC has added onsite psychiatric and mental health services, and trauma-informed care. We also offer specialized counseling groups for specific patient populations (e.g., pregnant/postpartum women, individuals involved with the criminal justice system, and patients coping with PTSD). Our wellness programs include tobacco cessation, nutrition, yoga, and expressive arts.

In 2017, CODAC introduced an exciting new initiative under our Center of Excellence program. Pain Solutions offers alternative and complementary therapies. These include acupuncture, therapeutic massage, and biofeedback. They are utilized concurrently with Medication Assisted Treatment to help manage chronic pain.
