Who oversees treatment
The Florida Department of Children and Families administers substance abuse services under Chapter 397, Florida Statutes, including developing the state plan and licensing service providers through its Office of Licensing.
Prescription monitoring
E-FORCSE is Florida's prescription drug monitoring program, run by the Florida Department of Health; it records dispensed Schedule II-V controlled substances so practitioners can see them when making prescribing decisions.
Public coverage for treatment
Florida Medicaid, run by the Agency for Health Care Administration, covers community behavioral health services that include substance use treatment services.
Overdose Good Samaritan law
Section 893.21, Florida Statutes, protects people who seek help in good faith for an overdose, and the overdosing person, from arrest or prosecution for certain drug offenses when the evidence was found because help was sought.
Court-ordered treatment
Part V of Chapter 397, Florida Statutes (commonly called the Marchman Act), lets courts order involuntary assessment and treatment of a person who is substance-abuse impaired, has lost self-control over use, and is a risk to self or others or cannot recognize the need for services.

LGBTQ program (SAMHSA)Inpatient / residentialDual diagnosisIOP / PHPMental health and substance use together
Depression, anxiety and trauma often show up alongside substance use, and SAMHSA data show higher rates of mental illness among lesbian, gay and bisexual adults. Treating both at once usually works better than treating them separately.
If that sounds familiar, look at LGBTQ dual diagnosis treatment.
How dual diagnosis treatment works
Dual diagnosis treatment treats substance use and mental health conditions at the same time, with one team. It usually combines therapy, psychiatric medication management and addiction treatment. The programs on this page report treatment for co-occurring serious mental illness, psychiatric medications and an LGBTQ program or group.
