HSAO – Human Services Administration Organization

Human Services Administration Organization (HSAO) Child & Adolescent Programs is a youth behavioral health and substance use service coordination provider in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. They emphasize a family-focused and culturally sensitive approach delivered in the least restrictive environment.

Adolescent Substance Use Programs

Rather than functioning as a traditional residential rehab HSAO operates as a service coordination hub that connects youth and families to needed care.

Services often begin with screening and an evaluation of treatment needs through Adolescent Drug and Alcohol Case Management followed by referral to treatment facilities based on client choice.

Families can expect customized support that links adolescents to substance abuse treatment, mental health and physical health care, legal advocacy and family supports, life skills, and recovery resources.

Additional tracks include the Student Assistance Program, Juvenile Justice Related Services, and School Based Service Coordination.
