Avenue 360 Health and Wellness – Heights

The Heights clinic, run by Avenue 360 Health and Wellness in Houston, Texas provides a comprehensive suite of services for clients. They have medical care, mental health and substance use treatment and multiple housing programs. They also have support programs like case management and transportation services.

They have a sliding scale of fees and if you don’t currently have insurance, they have specialists who can help you find coverage you’re eligible for. They accept some private insurance as well as Medicaid, Medicare and TRICARE.

One unique element of The Heights is their Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT). This program screens everyone for substance use concerns during their routine medical care.

This helps identify those who need help before they volunteer so they can get treatment sooner, which will hopefully limit the negative impact of problem substance use. The Heights provides evidence based care for addiction, including medication assisted treatment. They can help clients who have co occurring mental health and substance use disorders as well.

The Heights is able to meet people where they are, offering harm reduction services as well. For those who want to quit smoking, they have nicotine replacement therapy.

Treatment can only last for so long, and then it’s time to live out your recovery independently in daily life. Fortunately, you’re not on your own.

The Heights has a 24/7 on call health and wellness line to help you get immediate answers and reinforcement for your new habits. The on call team can provide case management and referrals to help you get any additional services you need.

You can also get peer recovery support, which partners you with someone who has been through treatment and is also in recovery. They can help you connect to recovery support groups and additional programs from The Heights for housing support and other services. Having someone who has been in your shoes can encourage you to continue in your new way of life and maintain long term sobriety.
