Care that includes transgender and nonbinary people
Transgender and nonbinary people often report being misgendered or treated poorly in health care settings, which can make treatment feel unsafe. Before you enroll, ask how the program handles names and pronouns, room assignments, bathrooms and continuing gender-affirming hormones.

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 rehab looks like
LGBTQ rehab follows the same proven approach as any good addiction program: medical detox when needed, individual and group therapy, medication for opioid or alcohol use disorder when it fits, and a plan for after discharge. The difference is a dedicated group or track where LGBTQ clients can talk about stigma, relationships, family and identity.
Programs are listed by distance, and badges show which offer residential or inpatient care.

What does it mean that a program reports an LGBTQ program?

Is there an LGBTQ rehab inside Newark?
Yes. 3 programs in Newark itself are listed at the top of this page.
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.
