Who oversees treatment
New York's Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) certifies addiction treatment providers; a provider needs the OASAS Commissioner's approval before opening a facility or offering a new service.
Prescription monitoring
New York's prescription monitoring program is the PMP Registry (part of I-STOP, the Internet System for Tracking Over-Prescribing), run by the Department of Health's Bureau of Narcotic Enforcement. It gives prescribers access to patients' dispensed controlled substance histories.
Overdose Good Samaritan law
New York's 911 Good Samaritan law (Penal Law 220.78) protects a person who seeks help in good faith for an overdose, and the person overdosing, from prosecution for certain drug and paraphernalia possession offenses. Sale for money is excluded.
Court-ordered treatment
New York's Mental Hygiene Law section 22.09 allows a person who is incapacitated by alcohol or substances and likely to harm themselves or others to be taken to a treatment facility and held involuntarily for emergency evaluation, for up to 72 hours.

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.
See questions to ask an LGBTQ rehab before you commit.
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.
