CORAS Wellness Newark is an active addiction and behavioral health treatment center at 3304 Drummond Plaza, Building 3, Newark, Delaware 19711. The program was formerly operated under the Connections CSP name and was previously listed using the Capitol Trail address format. Current CORAS and Delaware Health and Social Services records identify the location as CORAS Wellness and Behavioral Health. The current local phone number is 302-454-7520. CORAS serves Newark, Bear, Pike Creek, Christiana, Wilmington, and other communities throughout New Castle County, with telehealth and interpreter services available when appropriate. The clinic is wheelchair accessible and offers flexible scheduling for ongoing outpatient care.
Alcohol Treatment and Counseling
CORAS Newark provides outpatient addiction services for adults, including standard outpatient care, intensive outpatient programming, mental health counseling, medication management, and specialized addiction services. For people seeking alcohol treatment, the clinic can provide structured counseling and recovery support without requiring an overnight stay. Individualized planning can address drinking patterns, triggers, relapse risk, family concerns, and co-occurring mental health symptoms.
The Newark location also offers a state-approved DUI and alcohol education program. CORAS states that it provides the required Delaware DUI education and treatment levels, with evening, weekend, and Spanish-language options available. Court-required alcohol education can be one part of recovery, but clients with a broader alcohol use disorder may need additional clinical treatment based on assessment.
Medication-Assisted Treatment
The Newark clinic offers medication-assisted treatment using methadone, Suboxone, buprenorphine, Sublocade, Vivitrol, and related medications. Methadone and buprenorphine are primarily used for opioid use disorder. Vivitrol can also be considered in treatment for alcohol dependence when medically appropriate. CORAS combines medication with counseling and ongoing clinical support rather than treating medication as a complete recovery plan by itself.
Delaware licenses the Newark site for opioid treatment, outpatient services, and intensive outpatient treatment. The facility is not listed as an inpatient alcohol detox center. Anyone with significant physical dependence on alcohol or a history of severe withdrawal should obtain a medical assessment before abruptly stopping. CORAS can help connect clients to a higher level of care when withdrawal management or residential treatment is needed.
Insurance and Current Contact Information
CORAS states that Newark accepts Delaware Medicaid, Medicare, most commercial insurance plans, and self-pay. Uninsured Delaware residents may also qualify for state-funded treatment through DSAMH. People seeking alcohol rehab should verify their exact benefits, copays, authorizations, and medication coverage with the clinic before beginning services.
