About TCA

Total Community Approach (TCA) is a consumer centered, community-based recovery program involving counseling and support services for consumers suffering from substance use and/or addiction during their recovery process.

What is Central Intake

Central Intake provides assessments and referrals for consumers needing treatment for substance abuse and mental health treatment and recovery and support services. The Ride To Pride Central Intake office serves as the first point of contact for consumers in need of treatment. Assessment, treatment, recovery and support matching and referral to a treatment or recovery and support provider are completed at Central Intake. The assessment is conducted by a licensed professional. Initial contact and direction to treatment and recovery support services are conducted by a promatora.

Vouchers to pay for substance abuse treatment are available for consumers who meet the program guidelines. Vouchers are also available for Recovery and Support services such as child care, pastoral guidance and peer support.

How It Works

Central Intake eliminates the need to call multiple treatment agencies trying to find appropriate resources. Just call (505) 454-9738 or (505) 429-4231 to gain access to the Total Community Approach treatment delivery system. Central Intake helps to find a way through the complex maze of treatment programs, government agencies and referral systems. It helps those in need of treatment by assisting them into an appropriate level of care as quickly as possible.
