Organization for Recovery

Founded in 1997, Organization for Recovery is a nonprofit organization treating opioid use in Plainfield, New Jersey, primarily offering medication-assisted treatment but also offering outpatient treatment programs for substance use and mental health concerns. Bus line 59 provides access to their outpatient facility, stopping less than a block away on Richmond Street at E 3rd Street. Organization for Recovery accepts Medicaid and Medicare as well as non-Medicaid clients.

Medication-Assisted Treatment

Organization for Recovery offers medication-assisted treatment (MAT) via methadone and buprenorphine to assist with opioid cravings. MAT is available at their North Avenue location Monday through Friday from 5:30 AM - 7:30 PM and Saturday from 5:30 AM - 12:30 PM, with walk-ins welcome. Programs include intake, screening, assessment and evaluation, individual and group counseling, case management, medical and co-occurring mental health services, family counseling, HIV testing, and drug screenings. Organization for Recovery also operates a mobile medication unit offering MAT throughout the community of Plainfield, increasing the accessibility of treatment.

Outpatient Programs

Organization for Recovery offers an outpatient and intensive outpatient program (IOP) for individuals who are not receiving medication assisted treatment (MAT). Both programs include an assessment and evaluation, individual and group counseling, case management, anger management, and drug screenings. The outpatient program meets Monday through Thursday evenings and the IOP meets three evenings each week with longer sessions. Community based organizations, county probation, drug court, and New Jersey state parole (MAP) generally refer clients to these programs.
