Free/low-cost rehab in Erie county refers to a type of substance abuse treatment that is meant to be affordable to people who are dealing with substance abuse, over and above their homelessness, poverty, and/or unemployment.
Through this treatment, many people who cannot afford treatment, can receive the services that they require.
Both as a theoretical and a practical concept, free/low-cost drug rehab can be considered a medical necessity. This is because most of the people who are struggling with severe substance use disorders also have financial difficulties - and addiction and poverty seem to be interrelated.
Today, it is possible to get this form of treatment through a wide variety of means. For starters, there are several rehab programs that offer treatment at a discount or even free of charge to patients who are in poverty.
There are also various state-funded drug rehabs in Erie 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.
Lastly, 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 nation.
We can help you find the right treatment facility that best fits your overall needs and financial requirements.
