History
For over four decades, MAP has provided in-patient and out-patient substance abuse treatment and counseling
Founded in 1976. Mr. Rose founded MAP after he returned from the Vietnam War for U.S. veterans who were addicted to alcohol, drugs, and had PTSD. A non-profit organization registered in the state of Rhode Island, United States. In 2014, the organization changed its name to MAP Behavioral Services, Inc. The change was necessary as the organization made a transition from a Rehabilitation services organization, to a full-fledged Behavioral Health Services provider.
Prior to its inception in the 1970’s, men who were impacted by the effects of alcohol and drugs addiction were in great numbers, and there was no residential program to provide the services needed. There was also young men making the transition from prison into the community for drugs and alcohol related offenses who needed help as they settled into the community. Recidivism was high among this population due to the lack of culturally and linguistically oriented services in the community. Since admitting its first client in 1976 for alcohol treatment, MAP had continued to provide alcohol and drugs treatment services, as well as HIV and HCV Testing and education to thousands of clients from Rhode Island and other New England states.
MAP is proud to say that graduates of its treatment programs have continued to remain clean for life, with only few relapses, and requiring out-patient treatment.
MAP currently operates an all-male-35-bed inpatient Residential program, and Out-patient Counseling services, with an integrated Dual Diagnosis Treatment, and a 10 unit 811 Permanent Housing program for adults with disabilities. MAP provides exceptional treatment for clients with complex combinations of substance abuse and other behavioral health issue
