Serving communities from Caguas to Humacao, the program operates on a sliding fee scale, making ongoing recovery support accessible regardless of financial circumstances. Services are delivered in Spanish.

COSSMA Cidra Outpatient Services — formally known as COSSMA Cidra Outpatient Services SM/DG/ALC — is an outpatient addiction treatment and mental health program located along Carr #172 Km 13.5 Bo in Cidra, Puerto Rico. The facility is part of the COSSMA organization and draws individuals from across a wide stretch of eastern and central Puerto Rico, including Caguas, Aguas Buenas, Cayey, Aibonito, Gurabo, San Lorenzo, Juncos, Las Piedras, Maunabo, Naguabo, Yabucoa, and Humacao. For residents of these municipalities seeking a recovery center close to home, COSSMA Cidra represents a community-rooted option for structured outpatient care.

The program operates at the outpatient level of care, addressing both substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. This level of care is well suited for individuals who are ready to engage in scheduled treatment sessions while maintaining their daily lives — an approach that supports long-term recovery without requiring residential placement. Outpatient programming allows participants to remain connected to family, work, and community throughout the treatment process, which many people in recovery consider essential to sustained success.

All services at COSSMA Cidra are provided in Spanish, reflecting the linguistic needs of its Puerto Rican client base and removing a barrier that can otherwise prevent people from fully engaging in their recovery. The program follows a Monday through Friday schedule, with hours running from 7 AM to 4 PM each weekday, offering consistent access to treatment during the work week. For individuals and families evaluating the financial side of addiction treatment, COSSMA operates a sliding fee discount program — known in Spanish as the Programa de Escala de Descuentos — which adjusts the cost of services based on a client's ability to pay.

COSSMA Cidra serves individuals dealing with substance use disorders alongside mental health concerns, making it a relevant option for those whose recovery needs extend beyond addiction alone. The broad service area spanning more than a dozen municipalities means that people across a large portion of eastern Puerto Rico have access to a local outpatient program without traveling to a major metro center. For families and individuals in the region who are weighing their recovery options, COSSMA Cidra offers outpatient substance abuse treatment with a fee structure designed not to turn anyone away.

Outpatient Recovery Services in Cidra, Puerto Rico

COSSMA Cidra Outpatient Services provides structured outpatient addiction treatment and mental health care to residents across the Cidra municipality and the surrounding region. Unlike residential treatment, outpatient programming is designed for people who are ready to engage in a recovery program while continuing to live at home — a format that suits individuals at various stages of the recovery journey, from those stepping down from more intensive care to those beginning treatment for the first time.

The program treats both substance use and mental health conditions, recognizing that these concerns frequently appear together and that addressing them within the same program supports more durable recovery outcomes. COSSMA Cidra's outpatient model gives clients consistent, scheduled access to treatment Monday through Friday, building the routine and accountability that long-term recovery often requires.

Affordable Substance Abuse Treatment Through a Sliding Fee Scale

One of the most concrete ways COSSMA Cidra distinguishes itself as a recovery center is through its sliding fee discount program — the Programa de Escala de Descuentos. This payment structure adjusts the cost of outpatient treatment based on each individual's financial situation, reducing the economic barrier that keeps many people from pursuing the substance abuse treatment they need.

For families supporting a loved one in recovery, or for individuals navigating treatment costs on their own, knowing that a program will work with their financial reality can be the deciding factor. COSSMA's sliding scale is not a promotional detail — it is a structural commitment to serving the community regardless of income level. Prospective clients can reach the program by phone at (787) 739-8182 to discuss the fee structure and begin the enrollment process.

Serving Eastern and Central Puerto Rico

COSSMA Cidra's service area spans more than a dozen municipalities, including Caguas, Aguas Buenas, Cayey, Aibonito, Gurabo, San Lorenzo, Juncos, Las Piedras, Maunabo, Naguabo, Yabucoa, and Humacao. For residents across this corridor of Puerto Rico, COSSMA Cidra functions as a regional outpatient recovery resource — one that does not require traveling to a distant city to access consistent addiction treatment or mental health support.

All services are delivered in Spanish, meaning clients from across this service area can engage fully in their outpatient program without a language barrier. For communities in eastern and central Puerto Rico where access to Spanish-language addiction treatment and recovery services may otherwise be limited, this is a practical and meaningful distinction.

Who COSSMA Cidra Is Right For

COSSMA Cidra is designed for individuals dealing with substance use, mental health conditions, or both — and who are able to participate in outpatient programming while living in the community. The outpatient level of care works well for people who have a stable living situation, are motivated to engage in scheduled treatment, and want to maintain their family and community connections throughout recovery.

The sliding fee scale, Spanish-language services, and broad geographic reach make COSSMA Cidra particularly relevant for individuals and families in eastern and central Puerto Rico who need a local, accessible outpatient option. Those ready to take a step toward recovery, or those supporting a family member who is, can contact COSSMA directly at (787) 739-8182 or visit cossma.org to learn more.
