United Community and Family Services

United Community and Family Services delivers outpatient addiction treatment through medication-assisted treatment protocols and cognitive behavioral therapy frameworks. The recovery center's clinical team addresses substance use disorders while simultaneously treating co-occurring mental health conditions, creating integrated care pathways that support comprehensive recovery goals.

MAT services provide medical stabilization for clients transitioning from residential treatment or maintaining long-term recovery through ongoing pharmaceutical support. CBT sessions address behavioral patterns and coping strategies essential for sustained sobriety. The facility's telehealth capabilities ensure treatment continuity for clients across southeastern Connecticut's rural and urban communities.

The treatment center specializes in dual diagnosis care, addressing addiction alongside mental health conditions, trauma/PTSD, and gambling addiction through coordinated clinical protocols. Dr. Rajesh Parekh leads psychiatric services while integrated medical teams provide comprehensive assessment and ongoing care management for complex cases.

Co-occurring disorder treatment recognizes that sustainable recovery requires addressing underlying mental health challenges that often contribute to substance abuse patterns. The facility's medical directors coordinate psychiatric medication management with addiction treatment protocols, ensuring clients receive appropriate care for both conditions simultaneously rather than treating them as separate issues.

UCFS accepts Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, TRICARE, and offers sliding scale fees based on family size and household income. This payment flexibility removes financial barriers that often prevent southeastern Connecticut residents from accessing ongoing addiction treatment and recovery support services.

The facility's location in Moosup provides central access for clients from Norwich, New London, Griswold, Colchester, and Plainfield. Extended evening hours on Tuesdays and early morning availability on Thursdays accommodate working clients who require outpatient treatment scheduling around employment and family responsibilities.

Treatment programs serve diverse populations including adolescents, veterans, pregnant women, young adults, seniors, and court-ordered clients through tailored outpatient approaches. Specialized protocols address the unique recovery needs of each demographic while maintaining the core MAT and CBT therapeutic frameworks that anchor the facility's clinical model.

Multi-language services in 19 languages ensure southeastern Connecticut's diverse communities can access culturally appropriate addiction treatment. This linguistic accessibility, combined with specialized tracks for trauma survivors, HIV/AIDS support needs, and veteran-specific issues, creates inclusive recovery programming that serves the region's varied population demographics.
