The Need in Gaston County

By the Numbers

The county's overdose rate of 67.7 per 100,000 residents reflects a crisis that demands accessible, effective treatment options — not just statistics. There are 10 in-person providers listed in Gaston County — but for many residents, geography, scheduling, or privacy make in-person treatment difficult or impossible to maintain.

What's Included

Services Available in Gaston County

Everything needed for structured, clinician-led recovery — delivered entirely through secure telehealth, directly to Gaston County residents.

MOUD Prescriptions

Our addiction-specialized providers prescribe the appropriate FDA-approved medication for your needs and insurance — Suboxone, Sublocade, Vivitrol, or Buprenorphine/Naloxone.

Counseling — Combined with Your Visit

Therapy is built into every telehealth visit alongside your prescription — so you get both in a single appointment. No separate trips, no scheduling two providers.

Case Management & Peer Support

Beyond your regular visits, our team stays connected to your recovery and helps with the broader life circumstances that affect it — housing, employment, family, and more.

At-Home Urine Drug Screening

Collect and mail your sample from home using our kit — no lab visits required. Results are reviewed by your clinical team and factored into your ongoing care plan.
