for substance use disorders. Collaborating across medical,
behavioral, and psychosocial dimensions, NAS's dedicated Care Teams

individual goals.Our mission
- Based in science: -NAS care teams provide comprehensive,
evidence-based treatment that is tailored to each individual's
unique needs and goals. NAS teams also help manage co-occurring
conditions, including depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic
stress disorder (PTSD).
- Grounded in empathy: -We provide unconditional support rooted
in harm reduction and trauma-informed care. Patients, addiction
counselors, and caregivers make important decisions together. NAS
focuses on long-term health, happiness, and wellness by addressing
non-clinical goals like safe housing, employment, parenting, and
financial security just as much as clinical outcomes.
- Breaking down barriers: -We're reaching both urban and rural
communities of the country, where more than 80% of people have
little to no access to buprenorphine (Suboxone) prescribers. NAS
provides low-threshold care that is inclusive, empowering, and
heavily influenced by participants' stated preferences and goals.
Wherever our patients wish to go, we're grateful to go there
together.About the role

more people, we are changing and saving lives.

diverse team of expert clinicians and counselors aligned under a
common mission. NAS's clinical teams are some of the leading voices
in addiction medicine and industry transformation.
