Substance Use Services
We assist individuals who utilize substances with achieving their goals through a harm reduction approach.
Available programs
BAC is home to an OASAS-licensed outpatient substance use treatment clinic called First Steps, which is located at our 2261 Church Ave site in Brooklyn, NY. Anyone struggling with their substance use and want to make efforts to improve their lives are approached from a harm reduction, person centered and trauma informed way by our staff to assist with their goals.

Clients who are already enrolled in our First Steps outpatient care program will receive access to one of our substance use counselors who can provide essential support during their recovery journey.
