Treatment Access Made Easier

Finding help in substance abuse treatment can be difficult. It adds yet another barrier in an already painful and difficult situation. A Google search for “drug addiction help” or “alcohol rehab” will bring up countless advertisements for costly inpatient rehab that many folks, even those currently employed, simply cannot afford or that insurance does not cover.

Fr. Alfred Center, St. Anthony’s Drug & Alcohol Rehabilitation Program, exclusively enrolls men with no income or resources to its year long program. Free or low cost opportunities for recovery happen across the country, some as stable and long lasting like St. Anthony’s, and some with rolling enrollment. It’s hard to keep track of all of it, and harder to navigate when undergoing the physical, mental and spiritual crisis of chemical dependency.

Today I stumbled upon All Treatment, a resource center and free directory of substance abuse programs in the United States. It’s comprehensive and easy to navigate, and is not affiliated with any specific treatment center or addiction recovery company.
