Overview

Since 2006, October Road has been dedicated to providing full access to those who need our outpatient Substance Use Disorder treatment services. Through our Partial Hospitalization Program, Intensive Outpatient Program, Medication-Assisted Treatment Program, Cross Area Service Program, ACTT Services and other specialty services we have established ourselves as a recognized leader in Behavioral Healthcare treatment in North Carolina. We seek to meet our clients where they are at and develop comprehensive and robust treatment plans catered to maintain long-term recovery and improve outcomes for people with severe mental illness who are most at risk of psychiatric crisis and/or affected by other social determinants of health. At ACTT in Asheville we provide treatment and care to patients who may not have access to these important services otherwise, who have some of the highest risks for hospitalization, homelessness, or incarceration. We are seeing a dedicated RN to join our team!
