Haymarket Center, located at 120 N. Sangamon Street in Chicago, Illinois, is a prominent non-profit organization dedicated to assisting individuals with substance use disorders. Established in 1975 by Monsignor Ignatius McDermott and Dr. James West, the center has grown to become the largest community-based adult detoxification, residential, and outpatient treatment facility in Chicago.
The center offers a comprehensive range of services, including 24/7 access to care, ensuring that help is available whenever it’s needed. Their treatment programs are licensed by the Illinois Division of Substance Use Prevention and Recovery and accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF), reflecting a commitment to high-quality care.
Haymarket Center provides both residential and outpatient programs tailored to meet the unique needs of men and women. Residential services encompass specialized programs such as the Maternal Addiction Treatment (MATER) Hall and Maternity Objectives Management (MOMs), which support pregnant and parenting women, allowing them to have up to two children under five stay with them during treatment. For men, programs like Transition to Recovery focus on those with a history of opioid use and trauma, utilizing trauma-informed care and cognitive behavioral therapy.
Outpatient services include intensive programs offering nine or more hours of individual and group treatment per week, allowing patients to progress toward recovery while maintaining their community connections. All treatment options incorporate medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and evidence-based approaches to address both substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders.
In addition to treatment, Haymarket Center operates four recovery homes—two for men and two for women—that provide a supportive environment for clients transitioning back into independent living. These homes offer ongoing MAT, cognitive behavioral therapy, and vocational readiness services to help individuals regain their health and stability.
Guided by a mission to aid people in their recovery through comprehensive behavioral health solutions, Haymarket Center remains steadfast in its commitment to accessible and effective care for those seeking to overcome substance use challenges.
