CREATE, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization that has been serving the Harlem Community since 1973 for Outpatient and Inpatient substance abuse treatment, as well as providing Young Adult Transitional Housing and Permanent Supportive Housing. CREATE, Inc. also operates a Food Pantry on Wednesdays that serves our hungry neighbors. The Medically Supervised Outpatient Program identifies each participant's needs, and is based on a holistic approach that follows a medical model to evaluate, assess and develop a treatment plan, agreed upon by the participant, primary counselor and Multidisciplinary professionals. As a clinical team, we focus on each participant's level of care, which includes many components: medical and mental health, educational and vocational status, and suitable housing.
