Nearby cities to compare

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.

Who oversees treatment

The Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD) licenses Drug Abuse Treatment and Education Programs and Narcotic Treatment Programs, a duty that moved to it from the Department of Community Health. Its Office of Addictive Diseases also funds substance use treatment providers.

Prescription monitoring

The Georgia Prescription Drug Monitoring Program, run by the Georgia Department of Public Health, collects reports on dispensed controlled substance prescriptions to help reduce duplicative prescribing and overprescribing. Management of the program moved there from the Georgia Drugs and Narcotics Agency.

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.
