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.
How IOP and PHP work
Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) usually meet about three hours a day, three to five days a week. Partial hospitalization programs (PHP), also called day treatment, run most of the day while you sleep at home. Both deliver group and individual therapy, and many include medication management.
Every program on this page reports one of these levels of care plus an LGBTQ program or group.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
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 keep working during IOP?
Often, yes. Many IOPs run in the evening. Partial hospitalization takes most of the day, so it's harder to combine with full-time work.
Where can I find LGBTQ outpatient treatment near Atlanta, GA?
The nearest listed program is Summit Wellness Group – Atlanta Recovery Center, about 2 miles from Atlanta. Programs on this page offer intensive outpatient or partial hospitalization and report an LGBTQ program or group.
Can I bring my partner or chosen family into treatment?
Many programs offer family sessions and let you define who counts as family. Ask at intake whether partners and chosen family can take part.
