Being able to be yourself in treatment

Treatment works best when you can talk honestly about your life: your partner, your family, your gender, where and why you use. In a program that runs an LGBTQ group, those conversations are expected rather than awkward. Ask any program how staff are trained and how they handle names, pronouns and rooming.

How drug rehab works

Drug rehab usually starts with an assessment and detox if needed, then moves into residential or intensive outpatient therapy. For opioid use disorder, medications such as buprenorphine, methadone or naltrexone are the standard of care. For meth and cocaine, there's no approved medication, so behavioral therapies like contingency management do most of the work.

The programs on this page report drug detox or medication treatment along with an LGBTQ program or group.

Who oversees treatment

The Department of Public Health's Bureau of Substance Addiction Services oversees the statewide system of substance use prevention, treatment and recovery services and licenses treatment programs.

Court-ordered treatment

Massachusetts has Section 35 (M.G.L. c. 123 s. 35), which lets a court order a person with an alcohol or substance use disorder into inpatient treatment when use creates a likelihood of serious harm.

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.
