Mental health and substance use together
Depression, anxiety and trauma often show up alongside substance use, and SAMHSA data show higher rates of mental illness among lesbian, gay and bisexual adults. Treating both at once usually works better than treating them separately.
If that sounds familiar, look at LGBTQ dual diagnosis treatment.
How IOP and PHP work
Day and evening programs let you keep a job, school or caregiving while getting structured treatment. They are also the usual step down after residential care. Ask programs near Boston whether their LGBTQ group meets on the same days as the core program.
Local resources in Boston
Local health department
The Boston Public Health Commission is the city's health agency. It offers free naloxone to businesses and community groups, runs recovery events through its Recovery Services Bureau, and funds outreach linking people in high-overdose neighborhoods to treatment.
Drug and recovery court
The Boston Municipal Court runs recovery court (drug court) sessions in its Charlestown, Dorchester, East Boston, and South Boston divisions. These sessions offer an alternative to incarceration that combines supervised probation, required treatment, random drug testing, and regular status hearings before a judge.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
What's the difference between IOP and PHP?
IOP usually meets about three hours a day, several days a week. PHP, or day treatment, runs most of the day, five or more days a week. Both let you sleep at home.
Where can I find LGBTQ outpatient treatment near Boston, MA?
The nearest listed program is Providence Treatment, about under 1 mile from Boston. Programs on this page offer intensive outpatient or partial hospitalization and report an LGBTQ program or group.
