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.

Party drugs and chemsex

If use is tied to particular places, people or apps, part of treatment is building a social life that doesn't revolve around them. LGBTQ recovery meetings and community groups can help.

Overdose Good Samaritan law

Connecticut law gives civil and criminal immunity to people who seek or receive emergency medical care for a suspected drug overdose, and to people who give an opioid antagonist such as naloxone to someone they believe is overdosing.

Court-ordered treatment

Connecticut allows a person who is alcohol- or drug-dependent to be committed through a probate court application under Conn. Gen. Stat. 17a-685 if they are dangerous to themselves or others while intoxicated, or gravely disabled. A court can order inpatient treatment of 30 to 180 days, and a separate short emergency commitment is governed by section 17a-684.

Paying for treatment

Most private health insurance plans cover addiction treatment, including detox, residential care and outpatient programs, though coverage depends on your plan and whether the program is in network. Ask about prior authorization before you go, and see our insurance guides.
