Find Help for Addiction

Resources are available for those struggling with addiction and numerous effective treatments exist. Whether you are looking for help for yourself or a loved one, we encourage you to seek out help.

We recommend the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, which provides resources on behavioral health treatment across the country, as well as medication-assisted treatment programs for opioid addiction.
The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism Alcohol Treatment Navigator provides a step-by-step strategy for finding the best quality alcohol treatment programs and individual providers.
The Self-Empowering Addiction Treatment Association provides a directory for harm reduction and other treatment alternatives to a disease-model approach.
