DC Treatment, Behavioral Health & Court-Related Service Resources
This directory organizes District of Columbia treatment providers, behavioral health programs, substance use recovery resources, MAT/OTP access, outpatient and intensive outpatient programs, residential treatment, mental health counseling, crisis support, evaluations, peer recovery support, reentry-related care coordination, Core Service Agency routes, DBH-certified provider routes, and documentation-supporting service options for people navigating probation, parole, pretrial release, diversion, treatment court, reentry, supervision-related obligations, and recovery needs in DC.
Important: OACRA is an independent resource infrastructure platform. OACRA does not provide legal, clinical, medical, emergency, Medicaid, insurance, supervision, case-management, provider-approval, or treatment-placement advice and does not determine whether a provider, treatment program, evaluation, counseling service, MAT/OTP service, telehealth appointment, crisis service, support group, domestic violence program, anger-management provider, certificate, attendance record, progress report, discharge summary, completion letter, or other documentation satisfies a court order, probation condition, parole condition, pretrial release condition, diversion agreement, treatment court plan, evaluator recommendation, DC DBH requirement, Medicaid requirement, insurance requirement, supervision instruction, agency referral, or provider-specific intake requirement. Always confirm approval, documentation, attendance, payment, reporting, completion, telehealth, travel, provider status, referral requirements, Medicaid, insurance, and documentation requirements with the court, supervising officer, attorney, evaluator, treatment provider, DC DBH route, Core Service Agency, Access HelpLine, insurance plan, or referring agency before enrolling.
