  Among the hundreds of substance abuse treatment facilities in Florida, almost all of them treat both alcohol and drug abuse. About half of them focus solely on substance abuse treatment, while the other half are dual diagnosis facilities with a combination of mental health and substance abuse services. The majority Florida facilities offer outpatient services, while only about 30% offer inpatient or residential treatment.

  Each facility accepts a different variety of insurance plans—so it’s important to ask—and almost all accept out-of-pocket payment. If you can’t afford treatment, around 40% of Florida facilities offer treatment at no charge for some clients who can’t pay. Also, nearly half of all Florida facilities offer counseling in Spanish.

  Many facilities in Florida also offer screenings for mental health disorders, family counseling, and assistance with aftercare options—like case management services or transitional sober living. For quality aftercare options, there is a list of certified recovery residences in Florida, based on credentials established with the Florida Certification Board.
