Why LGBTQ-specific care can matter
Research summarized by the National Institute on Drug Abuse finds that sexual and gender minority people report higher rates of substance use and substance use disorders than the general population. Researchers often explain the gap with minority stress: the extra, ongoing strain of stigma, discrimination and having to stay on guard.
A program with an LGBTQ group gives you a place to talk about those pressures with people who share them, instead of working around them.
Questions worth asking
If sex and drug use have become linked for you, say so at intake. A good program will address it without judgment as part of relapse prevention.

Not every situation calls for a residential stay. We list 3 programs within 25 miles of Sarasota that report intensive outpatient, day treatment or regular outpatient services. Outpatient care works best when home is stable and supportive; it's also the usual next step after residential treatment.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
Are these rehabs only for gay men?
No. They report programming for LGBTQ clients and for adult men, but most serve a mixed population. Ask each one how its groups are organized.
Where is the nearest gay-friendly rehab to Sarasota, FL?
The nearest listed program is Clean Recovery Centers, about 6 miles from Sarasota. Programs on this page are residential or hospital programs that report an LGBTQ program or group and a program for adult men.
What does it mean that a program reports an LGBTQ program?
Each listed facility told SAMHSA's national treatment survey that it offers a program or group specifically for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer clients. It's self-reported, so ask the program how the group works and how often it meets.
Can I talk about sex and drug use in treatment?
Yes, and it helps to. If drug use has become tied to sex or dating apps, tell the program at intake so relapse prevention can address it without judgment.
