About this service
The PHS Community Managed Alcohol Program is for people who have severe alcohol use disorder, live in abject poverty, and sometimes drink non-beverage alcohol such as mouthwash or rubbing alcohol. Consuming non-beverage alcohol as a result of severe addiction can destabilize the persons life, increasing homelessness, stigmatization, violence, visits to the hospital, and even mortality. Managed alcohol programs have demonstrated increased quality of life, decreased violence, and decreased visits to the emergency room. The program focuses on outreach to street entrenched members of the community.
