Family, rejection and recovery
Many LGBTQ people carry experiences of family rejection or strained relationships into treatment. Research on LGBTQ young people has linked family rejection with higher rates of substance use and depression, while family acceptance is protective.
Good programs make room for chosen family and offer family sessions when they help. Our guide on family rejection and recovery covers this in more depth.
Trauma-informed care
Many people in treatment have lived through trauma, and for LGBTQ people that can include bullying, violence or rejection. Trauma-informed programs try to avoid re-traumatizing clients and build in therapy that addresses those experiences.
Cost and coverage
The cost of treatment depends mostly on the level of care, length of stay and your insurance. Residential care costs the most; outpatient therapy the least. Many programs on SAMHSA's directory accept private insurance, and some offer sliding-scale fees. See our insurance guides.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
Will my information stay private?
Federal rules (42 CFR Part 2) give substance use treatment records extra confidentiality protections beyond standard health privacy law. Ask any program how it handles your records and who can see them.
Is there an LGBTQ-friendly program inside Merritt Island?
We don't list one inside Merritt Island itself, but the closest programs within driving distance are listed on this page.
How do I know if a rehab near Merritt Island is really LGBTQ-friendly?
On this site, a program appears only if it reports an LGBTQ program or group to SAMHSA. Beyond that, ask about staff training, how names and pronouns are handled, and what happens if another client is disrespectful.
Can I bring my partner or chosen family into treatment?
Many programs offer family sessions and let you define who counts as family. Ask at intake whether partners and chosen family can take part.
