STATE LAUNCHES DRUG AND ALCOHOL REFERRAL TOOL
Services
In early December, the state Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs (DDAP) announced an online tool to help individuals identify resources for substance use disorder treatment and related support services, which can be accessed at ddap.pa.gov/GetHelp.
The Drug and Alcohol Referral Tool (DART) is a centralized hub that lists available resources to assist people seeking help, and people who want to help someone else, who may not know where to go for it.
The tool provides resources based on an individual's profile, including age, county of residence and veteran status, and can list resources if a person is experiencing homelessness, has issues with transportation to treatment, or has legal concerns, as well as programs that may be available depending on a person's income.
While the tool does not evaluate individual eligibility for resources, it can refer users to how they can obtain more information or assess their eligibility.
