Drug & Alcohol Rehab Centers In New York

There are almost 1,000 addiction treatment facilities in New York, each with different specializations and approaches. If you or a loved one are looking for treatment, it’s important to explore your options to determine what’s right for your needs.

Just about every facility treats people struggling with both alcohol and drug abuse. There are also some dual diagnosis rehabs, which provide substance abuse treatment along with mental health services to treat any underlying conditions.

The majority of facilities in New York offer outpatient care. You can also find inpatient rehabs that provide residential care. A large portion of rehabs in New York accept different insurance plans—private, federal, or state-financed. Cash payment is always an option as well. And, almost half of New York’s rehabs will provide treatment at no charge for clients who cannot pay.

New York is one of the most progressive states in its drug policies and its approach to treatment. It was one of the first to decriminalize and then legalize marijuana, to pass a Good Samaritan law, and to provide access to clean syringes. The state may even be one of the first to implement Supervised Injection Facilities (SIFs)—an emerging public health solution for intravenous drug users.
