About Metropolitan Development Council – Tacoma, Washington

Are you struggling with behavioral health issues, addiction, or any co-occurring mental health struggles? Metropolitan Development Council (MDC) in Tacoma, Washington offers medical detox and intensive outpatient programs as well as recovery support and various other services to help you overcome substance use disorder and/or mental health issues.

I really like that the MDC detox program accepts walk ins at any time, 24/7. No matter when you decide you need help, they are there to get the process started. They monitor you during the length of your stay in detox providing medications, healthy meals and counseling to help you prepare for the next stage of treatment.

The Fawcett Ave location also has intensive outpatient programs (IOPs) and general outpatient programs to treat addiction or co occurring substance use and mental health disorders. They can help you with skill building and mindful based relapse prevention along with the usual individual and group therapy.

Clients at the MDC Center get personalized discharge plans tailored to their needs. This process connects them with additional resources like housing assistance, supportive job programs and financial help. They help clients to get access to essential support systems.

Another thing that stood out to me is the way that they support youth and adult education. Youth education programs help high school students prepare college and a career after graduation, providing guidance around applications, financial aid, career advising and more. These programs take place in local schools so all students have access. Adult learners can also get help with college admission and financial forms at the Mobile Success Hub and the Educational Opportunity Center. The EOC offers virtual services as well, making it easy to access for everyone.
