Miami-Dade County runs its own Central Intake Unit as the front door for adults seeking a substance use evaluation, referral, or treatment placement. Referrals come from courts, police, community agencies, and family members, and walk-ins are accepted; staff decide whether outpatient or residential care fits.
The county's New Direction Residential Treatment Program serves adult Miami-Dade residents with counseling, medication-assisted treatment, case management, and relapse and overdose prevention. It includes a transitional track for people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and an intensive program for women.
