Our national and global resource collection is growing and we intend to provide a state-by state listing of addiction treatment and related resources. This will be a powerful tool in researching which type of addiction resources or treatment facility including drug rehab (and alcohol abuse treatment) that will be best suited for your loved one. If you know of or have experience with a resources you do not see on our list please feel free to submit information about that resource using our resource submission form (also see our resources submission page for details). Your involvment may help someone find an alcohol and drug treatment center near them. Who knows it may be just what they need to overcome their addiction?
