BAART Programs

About BAART Programs

BAART Programs St. Johnsbury is an outpatient opioid treatment program in Saint Johnsbury, Vermont, operated as part of the larger BAART Programs network. They focus specifically on opioid use disorder, including addiction to fentanyl, heroin, and prescription pain medications. Their approach pairs FDA-approved medication with counseling and medical oversight in a welcoming, non-judgmental setting. Care is offered through a methadone program and office-based buprenorphine treatment, and because everything is outpatient, most people can keep working and caring for family while in treatment.

Getting started can happen quickly, since the clinic offers on-site telehealth evaluations with a specialized provider and same-day admission afterward. Methadone patients move through induction, stabilization, and maintenance phases, with daily visits early on and take-home doses earned as stability grows. For those who need a lighter touch, the office-based buprenorphine option comes as a daily sublingual medication or a long-acting injection filled at a local pharmacy, and it can also serve as a step-down from more intensive care or an alternative for current methadone patients. Individual and group counseling, relapse prevention education, medical check-ups, treatment planning, specialized support for pregnant women, referrals to community resources, aftercare support, and guest medication services for travel round out the program.
