Core offering

Pivot 2 Health is a nonprofit organization that delivers substance abuse prevention, education, and recovery support services across Jefferson and Lewis Counties in New York. Its portfolio includes school-based prevention counseling in nine school districts, an Employee Assistance Program for contracted employers, the Anchor Recovery Center peer-based recovery facility, the NYS Impaired Driver Program, the WISE senior wellness program, and community coalitions including the Alliance for Better Communities and the Youth Alliance.

Product overview

Pivot 2 Health is a prevention and recovery services organization offering a portfolio of interconnected programs rather than a unified software product. Core offerings include the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) providing workplace counseling, the Anchor Recovery Center for peer-based addiction recovery support, the Alliance for Better Communities coalition for community-level prevention work, and the Youth Alliance for youth empowerment. Additional programs include the WISE Program for senior education and the NYS Impaired Driver Program for court-mandated education. Student Assistance Services delivers evidence-based prevention programs in schools including PAX Good Behavior Game, Second Step, SPORT, Stanford Cannabis Awareness Toolkit, Teen Intervene, and Too Good for Violence. These programs operate as distinct service offerings under the Pivot umbrella rather than as modules within a single platform.

Directly comparable service portfolio (prevention, outpatient, recovery housing) operating in the same New York State OASAS framework and competing for similar funding.
• Cazenovia Recovery Systems: Not-for-profit addiction prevention and treatment provider serving upstate New York under OASAS oversight. Comparable model of community-based prevention, outpatient services, and recovery housing across rural New York counties.
• Helio Health: Central New York nonprofit (formerly Syracuse Behavioral Healthcare) delivering prevention, treatment, and recovery services under OASAS oversight. Comparable multi-county upstate NY service footprint and integrated prevention-to-recovery model.

• Council on Addiction Recovery Services (CARS): Western New York nonprofit delivering prevention education, outpatient services, and recovery housing across Cattaraugus County under OASAS. Analogous county-anchored prevention/recovery model with similar school-based delivery and community coalition building.

Broad incumbents

• Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA): National umbrella organization for the Drug-Free Communities (DFC) coalition model that directly funds Pivot. Represents the network of coalitions Pivot belongs to and benchmarks against; operates at far greater scale across all 50 states.
• National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (NCADD): National nonprofit advocacy organization that historically absorbed state-level alcoholism councils like Pivot's predecessor (Alcohol & Substance Abuse Council of Jefferson County). Functionally Pivot is a successor/affiliate model under this national structure.

Emerging players
