VICTA is a privately owned outpatient integrated healthcare program located at 110 Elmwood Avenue in Providence. The organization specializes in medication treatment for opioid use disorder, intensive outpatient care, individual and group counseling, dual-diagnosis treatment, peer recovery support, and ambulatory medical services. VICTA was founded by addiction professionals who wanted to combine medical, behavioral health, and recovery services in one accessible location.
Medication for Opioid Use Disorder
VICTA provides methadone and buprenorphine for opioid use disorder. These medications reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings and can lower the risk of overdose when used as part of an individualized treatment plan. Medical providers evaluate opioid-use history, current symptoms, previous treatment, physical health, other medications, and recovery goals before recommending medication.
Medication dispensing is available on weekday mornings, with additional afternoon hours on selected days. Exact hours can change, and patients should confirm the current schedule directly with the program. Medication services are paired with counseling and clinical monitoring rather than treated as a stand-alone solution.
Intensive Outpatient and Counseling Services
VICTA offers individual counseling, group counseling, and an intensive outpatient program. The IOP operates in morning, afternoon, and evening tracks on selected weekdays, giving clients options that can fit around employment or family responsibilities. Intensive outpatient treatment provides more structure than weekly counseling while allowing participants to return home each day.
Counseling helps clients identify triggers, improve coping skills, strengthen motivation, and address relationships, stress, trauma, and other issues connected with substance use. Group sessions provide education, accountability, and peer support. Treatment plans are adjusted according to progress and clinical need.
Integrated Dual-Diagnosis Treatment
VICTA treats substance use and mental health concerns together. The staff includes physicians, mid-level medical providers, nurses, licensed substance use professionals, master’s-level clinicians, and peer recovery coaches. Clients with depression, anxiety, trauma, or another behavioral health condition can receive coordinated care rather than being sent to separate systems for every need.
Peer recovery coaches bring lived experience and can help clients connect with community resources, recovery supports, and practical services. The organization’s stated philosophy emphasizes individualized recovery, honesty, excellence, accountability, respect, and teamwork.
Ambulatory Medical Services
VICTA also provides onsite general medical care for people who may have avoided healthcare because of stigma or previous negative experiences. Services include episodic care, infectious-disease screening and treatment or referral, wound care, contraceptive care, and gynecological services. This integration helps clients address physical health conditions that could otherwise interfere with recovery.
Insurance and Admissions
VICTA states that it accepts many insurance plans and also accepts self-pay by cash, debit card, or credit card. Because the official website presents insurer names in an image rather than searchable text, patients should confirm their specific plan directly. The program can be reached at 401-300-5757 for screening, counseling schedules, medication eligibility, and payment information.
