Treatment rules and programs in Kansas

Who oversees treatment

The Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services licenses substance use disorder treatment programs through its Behavioral Health Services, and handles the licensing applications through its survey, certification and credentialing commission.

Prescription monitoring

Kansas's prescription drug monitoring program is K-TRACS, operated by the Kansas Board of Pharmacy. Prescribers and pharmacists use it to review controlled substance prescriptions and help prevent misuse and diversion.

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.

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.
