Welcome to SSTAR

Since 1977, we have been committed to providing programs and services that offer understanding, help, support and hope to those in need.

Stanley Street Treatment and Resources (SSTAR) is a non-profit health care and social service agency. We provide a wide range of mental health and substance abuse treatment services to people throughout the communities of Southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island. All of our substance abuse and mental health programs are licensed by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health and the Department of Mental Health Retardation and Hospitals in Rhode Island.

SSTAR was the first agency in the area to establish an inpatient substance abuse detoxification unit and the first to open an HIV walk-in testing clinic. We were also the first facility in Southeastern Massachusetts to detoxify pregnant addicts. In July of 1995, SSTAR of Rhode Island was selected to be the first private agency to provide public Detox services in Rhode Island.

SSTAR and SSTAR of RI does not discriminate on the basis of race, disability, sex, sexual orientation and/or HIV status or religion. All our services have bilingual capabilities and are sensitive to cultural differences.

Medicare, Medicaid and most third party insurance plans are accepted. Some services have a sliding scale fee.
