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.
Safety in detox
Ask how the program handles room assignments and whether you can keep taking prescribed medications, including hormones, during detox. You shouldn't have to choose between safe withdrawal and being respected.

Where is the nearest LGBTQ-inclusive detox to Alexandria, VA?
The nearest listed program is Virginia Hospital Center, about 4 miles from Alexandria. Programs on this page report detox services and 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.
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 taking hormones during detox?
In most cases you should be able to continue prescribed medications, including gender-affirming hormones. Ask the program and bring your prescriptions.
