About

About Fayette County Drug and Alcohol Commission Inc/SCA

Fayette County Drug and Alcohol Commission, Inc. (FCDAC) is the designated Single County Authority for substance use services in Fayette County, Pennsylvania. The organization operates from 100 New Salem Road, Suite 106 in Uniontown and delivers outpatient counseling, case management, assessments for placement in rehab facilities, DUI services, urine and hair drug testing, prevention programming, and NARCAN distribution. The mission, in the organization’s own words, is enhancing community quality of life by promoting addiction-free living through education, intervention, assessment, treatment, and referral.

On-site clinical services focus on outpatient counseling for alcohol and other drug problems, family counseling, and case management. Medication-Assisted Treatment information is provided directly to clients, and the commission coordinates a Student Assistance Program (SAP) for school-based identification of at-risk youth. Detoxification and inpatient rehabilitation are not delivered on site — the commission’s website explicitly describes its role as making “referrals to inpatient detoxification or rehabilitation” rather than housing those beds. SAMHSA’s dt=1 flag without a corresponding residential code is consistent with this referral-only model, so prospective clients should not expect on-site detox.

Payment flexibility is a defining feature. Most commercial insurance plans are accepted (the website directs callers to 724-438-3576 to verify coverage), and FCDAC explicitly tells clients without insurance not to worry — funding is often available if eligibility criteria are met. SAMHSA records Medicaid, private insurance, self-pay, state insurance, and sliding-scale fees as the payment pathways on file. The served population is broad and reflects the SCA’s mandate to serve everyone in Fayette County: adolescents through seniors, men and women, court-ordered referrals, and clients with hearing accessibility needs.

Office hours run Monday, Thursday, and Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., with extended Tuesday and Wednesday hours from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. The walk-in office is closed on weekends, but on-call coverage is available 24/7 for urgent situations through the main line. Toll-free access is 800-856-3576; the toll line is 724-438-3576.
