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.
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.
Residential or outpatient?
The right level of care depends on how much you use, your health, your living situation and past attempts to stop. A program's intake assessment, usually based on ASAM criteria, will recommend a starting level.

What does it mean that a program reports an LGBTQ program?
Each listed facility told SAMHSA's national treatment survey that it offers a program or group specifically for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer clients. It's self-reported, so ask the program how the group works and how often it meets.
How long does rehab last?
It depends on the level of care and your progress. Residential programs commonly run several weeks, and outpatient care often continues for months.
