Oaks Integrated Care

Oaks Integrated Care's East State Street location in Trenton provides an Outpatient Program for people navigating addiction and opioid addiction alongside mental health and developmental disability needs. As a Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic, the center is structured to meet people where they are — in the community — rather than requiring residential placement. That makes it a practical and clinically grounded option for individuals who are ready to build recovery into everyday life.

The outpatient format at Oaks is well-suited for people in ongoing recovery who need consistent clinical support without stepping away from family, work, or community. The clinic is open Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, providing regular access to treatment during the week. For families supporting a loved one in recovery, the center's populations-served list explicitly includes families — not just individual clients.

What distinguishes Oaks Integrated Care from many outpatient programs is the depth of its aftercare infrastructure. The Support Teams for Addiction Recovery (STAR) program extends clinical and peer support into the recovery community beyond formal treatment sessions. The Opioid Overdose Recovery Program (OORP) is designed to connect people who have experienced an overdose directly into treatment and ongoing care — a critical bridge at a high-risk moment.

The Safe At Home initiative and the Straight To Treatment pathway round out a recovery support network that prioritizes continuity. For people who have been through treatment before and understand that sustained recovery requires ongoing connection and support, these programs represent a meaningful commitment by Oaks to the longer arc of the recovery journey — not just the first chapter.

Oaks Integrated Care treats addiction through a clinical lens that centers Trauma Informed Care and Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT). These two approaches together reflect a framework that takes the complexity of addiction seriously — acknowledging that trauma often underlies substance use disorders and that medication can be a legitimate, effective tool in managing opioid addiction and supporting recovery over time.

MAT is not offered as a standalone fix but as part of an integrated outpatient program that also addresses mental illness and developmental disability. This integration is part of what the Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic designation is meant to signal: that care at Oaks is coordinated, not fragmented. Clients are not shuttled between separate systems for their different needs.

The East State Street clinic serves children, adults, and families — a breadth that matters for families where addiction, mental health challenges, or developmental needs touch multiple generations. Conditions treated include mental illness, addiction, developmental disability, and opioid addiction, making the clinic a resource for people whose recovery journey is complicated by co-occurring needs.

Financial access is addressed through a sliding scale payment structure, which adjusts costs based on what a person or family can afford. This removes one of the most common barriers to sustained outpatient care. To reach Oaks Integrated Care directly, call (800) 963-3377 or visit oaksintcare.org.
