Help in recovery.
Hope for a lifetime.


The Drug Abuse Research and Treatment Program (DART) helps individuals suffering with opioid use disorder achieve and maintain long-term sobriety. Grounded in more than 50 years of treatment experience, we build individual patient-centered plans that maximize the opportunity for recovery and equip patients with the tools to become responsible, self-reliant members of society again.

DART maintains both federal and state licensing while upholding rigorous record-keeping standards. Our approach utilizes the best of in-house and referral-based services and a proven mix of medical and behavioral therapies. The treatment team includes highly trained medical, clinical and administrative staff who specialize in opiate addiction and pride themselves in delivering secure, confidential treatment in a dignified and respectful atmosphere.

Since 1971 DART has been a leader in providing holistic, integrated services to patients throughout Western New York. As our community suffers under the addiction epidemic sweeping the nation, we offer hope and a proven path to recovery.
