About Apex Community Care
Nicknamed ‘Hat City” for its great contribution to the American hat industry, Danbury, Connecticut is also home to Apex Community Care. Since the mid 80s, this nonprofit organization has provided compassionate care for people living with HIV/AIDs or battling substance use and co-occurring disorders. You’ll benefit from affordable, quality care with discounted fees based on your unique situation.
Their outpatient center offers proven therapeutic interventions to help you reach your recovery goals. You can live at home and maintain daily responsibilities while getting the help you need. Their programs prioritize your needs with personalized care. You can participate in trauma-informed individual therapy, medication management, psychiatric services, medication assisted treatment (MAT), peer recovery coaching and more.
What stands out most to me is their prevention and harm reduction services. It’s possible you may not be ready to dive into recovery fully. In these cases, harm reduction can help you use substances as safely as possible.
You can access syringe exchange programs, smoking supplies, and free Narcan training and distribution. They also provide HIV prevention, testing, and treatment. These approaches can help you stay safe and introduce you to potential treatment options whenever you’re ready to start recovey.
I also think their specialized support groups are wonderful. You can access peer support sessions tailored to your unique barriers and interests. They offer targeted groups for people in the LGBTQ+ community, women, people living with HIV, and more. You’ll benefit from a safe space to connect with peers on similar paths and share your story.
Lastly, their culturally competent approach also caught my eye. You can access case management services tailored to the Latinx community. Your case manager is there to reduce stigma and treatment barriers and connect you to vital resources and services to aid in your journey.

Other Forms of Payment
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.
