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.

Party drugs and chemsex
Some people find their drug use is tied to nightlife, dating apps or sex. That's worth bringing up at intake; it affects triggers and relapse planning. A program with an LGBTQ group is more likely to have heard it before and to talk about it plainly.
Prefer to live at home during treatment?
We list 13 programs within 25 miles of Altoona that report intensive outpatient, day treatment or regular outpatient services. Intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization programs let you attend treatment during the day or evening and go home afterward.
Iowa rules and programs that affect treatment

Prescription monitoring
The Iowa Prescription Monitoring Program collects and stores data on controlled substance prescriptions so authorized prescribers and pharmacists can review a patient's history. It is run by the Iowa Board of Pharmacy, part of the Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing.
Public coverage for treatment
Iowa Medicaid is a major funder of behavioral health care in the state, and the managed care organizations it contracts with must provide mental health and substance use services.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
Is medication used for drug addiction?
For opioid use disorder, yes: buprenorphine, methadone and naltrexone are standard treatments. For stimulants, no medication is FDA-approved, so therapy does the work.
Will my information stay private?
Federal rules (42 CFR Part 2) give substance use treatment records extra confidentiality protections beyond standard health privacy law. Ask any program how it handles your records and who can see them.
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.
Do these programs treat meth and party drugs?
Many do. Ask each program which substances it treats and how it approaches stimulants such as meth and cocaine, which are treated mainly with behavioral therapy.
