I am 30 years old and have two children that I no longer have custody of or even visitation rights to see at all. Ive been going down this road for a very long time (too long) and I want nothing more than to get clean and start living again. I realize nothing will ever be the way that it was at one time in my life, but this is not me. I want to once again recognize the person looking back at me

Free Rehab Centers in Nearby Cities

Since many of our rehab centers are sliding scale, we have provided the Federal Poverty Guidelines below. Visit the First at Blue Ridge Inc website listed above to see what the level is needed for free care based on your income from the sliding fee scale.

Federal Poverty Guidelines for 2024

Persons In Family Household Poverty Guideline Salary per year
1 $15,060
2 $20,440
3 $25,820
4 $31,200
5 $36,580
6 $41,960
7 $47,340
8 $52,720

*Alaska and Hawaii have different rates for HUD federal poverty guidelines.
These numbers above represent 100% of the Federal Poverty Rate. In order to get reduced or free treatment from some substance abuse centers, they use a sliding fee scale based on your income. When they use a sliding fee scale, the 100% rate can be different than 100%. In those cases, using for example a 200% federal poverty level, you will only need double the 100% number listed above to 200%.

Hello, My wife and I move to Charlotte from Washington state. We have a son who has been in and out of jail for drug related problems and is serving time in the state prison for being in a stolen car while he was on probation. I would like to see him get away and start fresh some place else. over the years he has been in and out of our house while we lived in Washington state and have come to the conclusion that living with us really is not helping.him. I believe he will get out of prison in a few months and at this point his options are not good in Washington mostly due to his choices. I am wondering if this kind of a residential program might be helpful to him and would like to know if it would be a viable option for him if we were to bring him back here. Thanks for what you do. God Bless Bob
