Family, rejection and recovery
Many LGBTQ people carry experiences of family rejection or strained relationships into treatment. Research on LGBTQ young people has linked family rejection with higher rates of substance use and depression, while family acceptance is protective.
Good programs make room for chosen family and offer family sessions when they help. Our guide on family rejection and recovery covers this in more depth.
How alcohol rehab works
Alcohol rehab begins with a safe detox when needed, because alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous after heavy daily drinking. Treatment then combines therapy with medications for alcohol use disorder, such as naltrexone, acamprosate or disulfiram, when they fit.
The programs on this page report alcohol detox or alcohol use disorder medications along with an LGBTQ program or group.

California rules and programs that affect treatment

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.
Is alcohol withdrawal dangerous?
It can be. After heavy daily drinking, stopping suddenly can cause seizures or delirium tremens. Medical detox manages this safely.
What medications help with alcohol use disorder?
Naltrexone, acamprosate and disulfiram are FDA-approved. A doctor can help decide whether one fits you.
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.
