Free/low-cost drug rehab in Cook county applies to a type of addiction treatment that is designed to be affordable to people who are dealing with substance abuse, over and above their homelessness, poverty, and/or unemployment.
Through free and low cost treatment, many people who cannot afford treatment, can receive the help that they require.
Both as a theoretical and a practical concept, free/low-cost drug rehab is now considered to be a medical necessity. This is because most of the people who are struggling with severe substance use disorders also have financial hardships - and addiction and poverty seem to be interrelated.
Today, it is possible to get free and low-cost treatment through a wide variety of approaches. First off, there are several programs that offer recovery services at a discount or even free of charge to patients who are in financial strain.
There are also various state-funded rehab programs in Cook County that accept local residents into their programs. In such state funded programs, you would have to provide proof of your identity, residence status, and financial need before you can be admitted into the program.
Finally, there are faith-based groups that run addiction recovery services - such as the Salvation Army and Teen Challenge programs. These programs are free or low-cost and distributed throughout the U.S.
We can help you find the right treatment facility that best fits your overall needs and financial requirements.
