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.

What "LGBTQ-friendly" should mean

Friendly should mean more than a rainbow logo. Look for an actual LGBTQ group, staff training, inclusive intake forms with space for your name and pronouns, and policies against harassment from other clients.
