I was on probation and thru the courts I was made to do AA. Although the principals can work for most, including myself. I got involved in a church of my own liking and that's what worked for 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 The Refuge at Veritas Community Church 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

*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%.

I'm reaching out to you for my boyfriend.. He is a severe alcoholic addicted to liquor beer and weed... He knows he has a problem with alcoholism but he refuse to be treated.. He needs to be in a in patient facility until he is cured..

2022-05-10 11:08:51

I am reaching out because I can no longer live like this. I'm causing more pain to my children everyday. I quit for about 15 yrs, and then Covid hit and I lost my job was forced to get a job I did not like. We began housing the homeless at my job. I relapsed with one of the women that we housed. I then continued using and have gotten worse then I ever was before.This is not the life I want for my children or myself.
