CODA is a behavioral healthcare agency. Our mission is to significantly reduce alcohol and drug problems and related social, health and behavioral consequences. When people come to us with alcohol or drug-related problems, they are often at a crisis point. They may be physically and emotionally ill; their relationships, financial situation and work lives can be dysfunctional. They may be in trouble with the law, without homes, or lacking other things basic to making their way in the world. At CODA we work with women, men and families as they take on all of these challenges. We provide the support and treatment needed for them to reduce and eliminate their alcohol and drug use; reconcile with family and friends; find employment, and take a place in the larger community. CODA has been building stronger families, safer neighborhoods, and healthier communities since 1969 through comprehensive behavioral-treatment options for people in need of substance-abuse or mental health services.
