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.
Social life without alcohol
For many LGBTQ people, bars and parties have been central to community and dating. Recovery often means finding sober spaces and friends. LGBTQ recovery meetings, community centers and sober events can help.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
Is alcohol withdrawal dangerous?
It can be. After heavy daily drinking, stopping suddenly can cause seizures or delirium tremens. Medical detox manages this safely.
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.
Where is the nearest LGBTQ alcohol rehab to Athens, OH?
