[Canaan, CT] — Mountainside Treatment Center and the Teamsters Union are proud to announce a partnership to revolutionize addiction treatment for Teamsters members and their families. The collaboration will provide seamless access to compassionate, evidence-based care, empowering individuals and families to heal from addiction and reclaim their lives.
According to the 2023 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), approximately 95 percent of people aged 12 or older with a substance use disorder did not receive any treatment. This translates to millions of individuals who could not access the care they needed due to geographic, personal, and financial barriers.
While Mountainside is not currently in-network, they are an authorized provider for Teamsters union members which means they can receive quality, consistent support through this unique benefit.
Mountainside has inpatient and outpatient locations in CT, NY, and NJ and serves MA virtually with a range of comprehensive treatment programs covered by Teamsters, each designed with the client’s individual journey in mind:
