It should be easier to get help than to get high

Burrell provides addiction recovery services for youth and adults in southwest and central Missouri. Our approach is person-centered individualized care that is designed to meet the needs of each client, addressing both substance use disorders and mental health problems as needed.

This program is designed for those who have used drugs in the past 72 hours or who are in active withdrawal and need help with the detoxification process.

Medication treatment for substance use disorders is a proven, effective treatment. Medication First for opioid use disorders, along with psychosocial treatment, has been shown to increase treatment retention, and to reduce opioid use, opioid overdoses, risk behaviors and death.
