Potomac Comm Svcs

Potomac Community Services provides mental health case management, counseling and mobile crisis services for residents of Carroll, Frederick and Washington counties in Maryland. Its Alternative Drug and Alcohol Counseling program offers screening, assessments, individual and group counseling, adolescent counseling, and a drinking and driving program with DMV-approved, SAP and DOT evaluations. The agency has been serving the region for over 25 years.

Alcohol and drug counseling is offered at the Hagerstown office on East Antietam Street, and there is also an office in Cumberland. Evaluations generally run 60 to 90 minutes and rely on honest, detailed answers about substance use and personal history. Case managers coordinate with doctors, therapists and family, and some services include in-home visits. Maryland Medicaid is accepted, and an after-hours line handles emergency assistance outside business hours.
