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.
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.

Pennsylvania rules and programs that affect treatment
These state-level facts apply to everyone seeking LGBTQ detox in Scranton.
Public coverage for treatment
Pennsylvania's Medicaid program is called Medical Assistance and pays for many substance use treatment services for eligible people, mainly through Behavioral HealthChoices managed care organizations.
Overdose Good Samaritan law
Under Act 139 of 2014, a person who reports an overdose in good faith and stays with the victim, and the person overdosing, are protected from prosecution for certain drug possession offenses and from probation or parole violations. It does not cover delivery or distribution charges.
Insurance and cost
Federal parity rules generally require health plans that cover substance use treatment to cover it on terms comparable to other medical care. Your cost depends on your plan, deductible and the program's network status, so verify benefits first. Our insurance guides explain how major carriers handle rehab.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
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.
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 happens after detox?
Detox is the first step. Treatment continues in residential, partial hospitalization or outpatient care. Ask each program about its referral plan.
