Community Service Locator

New Tool to Find Local Programs and Resources

The Center for Substance Abuse Research (CESAR) at the University of Maryland recently launched a new website, the Maryland Community Services Locator (MDCSL). The Maryland Community Services Locator (MDCSL) website was created to help Maryland service providers and the general public more easily access local programs and resources. This website helps users quickly find detailed resource listings for a variety of services, including maps and directions to program sites, using a single website.

The current website includes listings of substance abuse treatment services: Alcoholics Anonymous meeting lists, Narcotics Anonymous meeting lists, Buprenorphine certified physicians, housing services (such as drop-in centers and shelters), parole and probation offices, public schools, and victim services, searchable by proximity to a given address.

In the future, the MDCSL’s program service listings will be expanded to include other community services, including health/mental health services, education/job readiness programs, emergency food assistance and more!

We invite you to visit the MDCSL beta website at:www.mdcsl.org
