Substance use intake worker 507-837-6687

Substance Use (SU) services are available to MNPrairie county residents who have problems with drug and/or alcohol abuse and meet the income guidelines, or have been referred by the court for services.
 
Assessment services can be found within MNPrairie offices and also from a variety of healthcare and substance use provider agencies. 

Services include:

• Substance Use assessments, commonly referred to as Rule 25 assessments.
• Detoxification
• Referral for Rule 31 substance use treatment programs for high, medium, and low intensity inpatient and outpatient treatment services, supportive housing, intensive case management (CD Navigator), and drug courts.
• Other various supportive services

Private insurance may not cover all or some chemical health services. Services may be paid for with public funding if the recipient is financially eligible. Charges related to detoxification services will be charged to the recipient based on the information provided through the income verification material submitted. This includes minors, who almost always are eligible if they have private or no insurance.
