JABALI INTENSIVE OUTPATIENT
The program provides outpatient treatment services, including assessment, therapy(individual, family, and group), and medical care for youth ages 12-18, primarily from marginalized groups in San Francisco, who are actively using substances and meet criteria for an SUD diagnosis, presenting with acute intoxication or withdrawal potential. Individuals experiencing intoxication and/or withdrawal are more successfully treated when these physical elements are prioritized. Additionally, in alignment with NIH recommendations, withdrawal management is tailored to each situation.

Chief Executive Officer of Homeless Children's Network
"No single organization or individual can make a meaningful impact on this crisis without a multi-year, robustly funded investment in a citywide community driven collaboration.
There is a generational impact of substance use disorder and overdoses. For every one adult we lose, many people, including children, are impacted."
