Care that includes transgender and nonbinary people

Transgender and nonbinary people often report being misgendered or treated poorly in health care settings, which can make treatment feel unsafe. Before you enroll, ask how the program handles names and pronouns, room assignments, bathrooms and continuing gender-affirming hormones.

Safety in detox

If you're worried about being outed or treated badly, ask about confidentiality and anti-harassment policies before admission. Federal rules give substance use treatment records extra privacy protection.
