Monroe Community Mental Health Authority offers individualized mental health care and substance use disorder treatment for Monroe County residents. They are located off Raisinville Road in Monroe Charter Township, Michigan. Their substance use services focus on providing assessments and connecting you with appropriate care.

They provide 24/7 after-hours crisis services and safety planning to ensure you have support whenever you need it. They also provide comprehensive crisis mobile services involving temporary crisis response as well as crisis intervention and stabilization. This serves adults and children within the community experiencing a mental health or substance use crisis.
The goal of crisis support is to engage clients and reduce symptoms or stabilize situations by assessing immediate crises and helping to resolve and de escalate them. A 24/7 crisis response team is available through law enforcement and Monroe Community Mental Health Authority (MCMHA) access as well as MCMHA’s after hours services.
MCMHA also provides eligibility screening to help match you with the right level of care for mental health or substance use. They offer prescreening for inpatient care and other substance use programs.
In their core program MCMHA partners with Salvation Army Harbor Light (SAHL) to provide an intensive outpatient therapy for clients with opioid use disorders. This program involves six group therapy sessions coordinated by SAHL followed by six months of aftercare provided by MCMHA.
The therapy sessions are designed to help you address the negative emotions and behavioral patterns fueling your substance use while building a positive coping strategy to manage them. You’ll also complete classwork on substance use and receive tools to help maintain sobriety while working with your team to craft a sound relapse prevention strategy.
Aftercare services are geared towards continued and sustained recovery. You’ll work alongside your case manager to create a personalized plan that supports your lasting sobriety. This may include connections to community resources like housing and medical care as well as vocational training or job placement.
