Community Managed Alcohol Program
Addictions / Substance Use
Provided by PHS Community Services Society
A harm reduction program for individuals with severe alcohol use disorder who sometimes consume non-beverage alcohol.
The Community Managed Alcohol Program (CMAP) is for individuals who struggle with severe alcohol use disorder and who sometimes drink non-beverage alcohol such as mouthwash or rubbing alcohol. CMAP works with members to substitute this with limited amounts of member-brewed wine and beer.
The program focuses on outreach to street entrenched members of the community. CMAP provides controlled access to alcohol coupled with wraparound services including meals and regular access to general medical care. While abstinence is not the goal of the program, many participants have made significant gains in their lives increasing health and wellbeing, finding stability, and quitting drinking alcoholic beverages.
