What this covers

Detox programs, residential treatment, outpatient treatment, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), harm reduction, sober housing, recovery support groups, and naloxone access.

Does not cover: Mental health counseling without substance use focus (see Mental Health). For general health care, see Health.

Who is this for?

Anyone struggling with alcohol, drugs, or other substance use — or their family members seeking guidance.

How help usually works

Treatment may involve visits to a clinic, a stay at a facility or recovery support. A care provider can help you discuss options and cost. A referral does not confirm an open place.

When help can start: Openings and intake times vary by provider and type of care. Confirm the next available appointment or bed directly.

How to start

  1. Call SAMHSA at 1-800-662-4357 for treatment information and referrals.
  2. Ask the provider about the care you need, its intake process, cost and insurance.
  3. Ask what support is available while you wait for an appointment.

What to bring

Ask the program for its intake list. Have insurance details and a medication list ready if you have them. Do not assume every facility allows the same belongings.

If you need help soon

For a possible overdose or other medical emergency, call 911. For treatment referrals, call 1-800-662-4357.
