Welcome to the Delaware Addiction Treatment Resource Center

The Addiction Treatment Resource Center (ATRC) is designed for providers in Delaware who offer treatment or supports for those with substance use disorders (SUD), with a specific focus on opioid use disorder (OUD) and stimulant use disorder (STUD). The ATRC is a centralized online hub where providers of all types can find information and resources helping address the needs of individuals with SUD, OUD and STUD.

If you are looking for crisis or treatment options please visit HelpIsHereDE.com to get help.

The ATRC was developed by the Delaware Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health (DSAMH) with funding from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) through State Opioid Response (SOR) grant. The most effective way to ensure access to screening, referrals and treatment is by having a wide range of providers contributing to addressing the needs of individuals with SUD, OUD and STUD.

Here, providers can access:

  • A resource library with articles, policy examples, implementation strategies and clinical best practices
  • Training and technical assistance opportunities and resources
  • Data specific to Delaware and its population
  • Newsletters and articles
  • Specific resources related to the SOR grant and Tier Award Payment (TAP) program
  • Current funding opportunities

This online resource center is for all levels and types of providers who are currently addressing the needs of people in Delaware with SUD, OUD and STUD, and for providers who would like to become part of the treatment response for this population.

State Opioid Response (SOR) Grant

The Delaware State Opioid Response (SOR) grant is a Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) funded initiative that provides financial resources to build a strong and effective OUD and STUD system of care.

In the Fall of 2020, the Delaware Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health (DSAMH) created the Opioid Response Team (ORT) to provide strategic leadership and oversight to all opioid-related programs and activities throughout the Division and, with our partners, focusing on implementing Delaware’s State Opioid Response. The ORT is comprised of subject matter experts across the division who serve as the main point of contact for all SOR programs, projects and partners.

For questions or more information, please email DSAMH.ORT@delaware.gov

The goals of the SOR grant in Delaware include:

  • Decrease opioid overdoses statewide through development and expansion of programs and resources focused on low threshold access to treatment and targeted referral systems.
  • Improve understanding of and engagement and retention in OUD/STUD treatment for those currently accessing the system by enhancing and expanding current prevention, treatment, and recovery services for patients, families, and communities.
  • Identify and engage high risk populations in treatment through universal screening and direct, efficient referral of OUD/STUD patients and others affected by the illness to existing treatment and recovery services.
