How to Scrape SAMHSA Treatment Facilities

Step-by-Step Tutorial

1. Open the Actor — Navigate to the SAMHSA Treatment Locator Scraper on Apify Store and click Start.

2. Select Service Type — Choose what type of facilities to extract:

   • SA (Substance Abuse) — Addiction/substance-use treatment centers, detox facilities, opioid treatment programs
   • MH (Mental Health) — Mental-health clinics, psychiatric hospitals, counseling services
   • BOTH — Include both substance-abuse and mental-health facilities in results

3. Enter a Search Location — Provide any valid US ZIP code. Results are ordered by distance from this location.

   • Example: 10001 (Manhattan), 90210 (Los Angeles), 77002 (Houston)
   • Default is 10001 (New York) to return a large national result set

4. (Optional) Filter by Facility Name — Enter a partial facility name to narrow results (case-insensitive).

   • Example: "Horizon" will match "Horizon Health Services", "New Horizon Treatment Center", etc.
   • Leave blank to include all facility names

5. (Optional) Filter by State — Enter a 2-letter state code to limit results to one state.

   • Example: "CA" returns only California facilities, "TX" returns only Texas, etc.
   • Leave blank to include all states

6. Set Max Results — Control the output size:

   • Default is 1000 (enough for most use cases)
   • Set to 0 for unlimited (scrapes all available facilities, typically 12,000+)
   • Larger runs consume more compute and may take longer; Apify charges for actual run time

7. Click Start — The Actor begins paginating through the SAMHSA API and collecting facility records.

8. Download Results — Once the run completes, navigate to the Dataset tab and download as:

   • JSON — For programmatic processing (CRM, database import, RAG pipelines)
   • CSV — For Excel/spreadsheet analysis
   • Excel — Direct Excel export with formatted columns

Input Example

{
    "serviceType": "SA",
    "zip": "10001",
    "nameFilter": "Horizon",
    "stateFilter": "NY",
    "maxResults": 500
}

This configuration fetches up to 500 substance-abuse facilities in New York with "Horizon" in the name, ordered by distance from ZIP 10001.

Output Example

{
    "name": "MRB Counseling Services Inc",
    "street": "101 Chestnut Street, Suite 110",
    "city": "Gaithersburg",
    "state": "MD",
    "zip": "20877",
    "phone": "301-527-0854",
    "website": "https://www.mrbcounseling.com",
    "intakePhone": "",
    "hotline": "",
    "latitude": "39.1411626",

    "serviceType": "SA"
}

FAQ

Is it legal to scrape SAMHSA treatment facility data?

Yes. This Actor accesses publicly available data from findtreatment.gov, which is published by the U.S. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration as open public data. No authentication or terms-of-service bypass is required. The data is freely available for any lawful use.

Can I export the data as CSV or Excel?

Yes. After the run completes, the Dataset tab on Apify provides export options for JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, and other formats.

How fresh is the treatment facility data?

SAMHSA updates the treatment locator regularly, though the update frequency varies. For the most current data, you can schedule this Actor to run weekly or monthly.

What if I need facilities in multiple states?

Leave the stateFilter blank (default) to retrieve facilities from all states. Then filter client-side or use the CSV export to sort/segment by state in Excel.

Can I search by distance from a ZIP code?

Yes. Results are automatically ordered by distance from the ZIP code you provide. SAMHSA returns all nationwide facilities ordered by distance, with distance metadata included in the API response (though this Actor focuses on the facility contact data).

What does an empty intakePhone or hotline mean?

Many facilities only list a single main phone number. Empty fields are converted to empty strings ("") in the output. When importing into a database or CRM, treat empty strings as "not available" — do not assume the field is invalid.

How many facilities will I get for a ZIP code?

The SAMHSA API returns roughly 100 facilities per page, ordered by distance. For a centrally located ZIP (like 10001 in Manhattan), you may get 12,000+ results nationally. The Actor respects the maxResults limit to keep compute costs manageable. Set maxResults: 0 to retrieve all available facilities (may take 1-2 minutes for the full dataset).
