About Altamont Program
Altamont Program offers ongoing support for adults, youth and families experiencing homelessness, addiction and other life challenges in Albany, New York.
You can access outpatient addiction treatment to start or continue your recovery journey.
They provide a wide range of services beyond addiction counseling. You can participate in housing assistance, education, employment services, job training and more.
Medication Assisted Treatment
One great feature I noticed was that you can access medication assisted treatment at another branch nearby. This approach combines FDA cleared medications and behavioral therapies.
They prescribe medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and reduce the cravings that come with quitting opioids and alcohol.
They complement care with group and individual therapy to help you understand and address the behaviors contributing to addiction.
Additional Services for Lasting Recovery
I like that they have additional services to improve your journey. You can participate in housekeeping classes, employment services, parenting classes, financial management courses and more.
These activities can help build a solid foundation for recovery. The also offer experiential activities including art therapy. Clients can benefit from new ways to express themselves.
