Free Drug Rehab: Free Drug Rehab – Is the Salvation Army Right for You?

For those of us without good comprehensive health insurance, and without the means to self finance a stay at rehab, it sometimes feels as though no one will help us.

Try calling the 1 800 numbers atop any of the drug rehab referral sites, and see how quickly interest fades once you mention your lack of resources! But there are people that will help you, they are sometimes just a bit hard to find. Free and very affordable drug and alcohol rehabs don’t command impressive marketing budgets, and although they are online, they tend to be buried pretty deeply.

There are people that want to help you get better though, people that don’t much care how much or how little money you have; and you can find a lot of these people at the Salvation Army.

ARC’s

The Salvation Army runs almost 200 free drug and alcohol rehabs coast to coast. These rehabs, called ARC’s, can be found in just about every major city in the nation, and in all states. The only requirement for entry into a program is a willingness to receive help, a willingness to participate in a Christian program of recovery and a willingness to work within the organization while receiving therapy.

If you can agree to these simple admissions requirements, the Salvation Army will take you in for a stay of treatment, generally 6 months or longer in duration, and for this time they will supply all needed food, clothing, learning materials and shelter, and all at no cost to you.

Christian Therapy

Therapeutically, you will participate in the Christian 12 steps, receive individual Christian counseling, and participate in bible study and in group addiction therapy. Work within the organization is considered a form of therapy, as well as a way to subsidize the cost of your treatment. You may be asked to work in one of the many Salvation Army Thrift Shops, drive a delivery truck, or do other tasks within the organization. Work as therapy aims to instill a sense of responsibility, integrity and pride, as it also imparts vocational and employable skills.

Residents will also have access to vocational skills classes and educational equivalency courses, both at the high school and college level.

If you have nowhere else to go and if you cannot afford private drug rehab, the Salvation Army will take you in. They will give you a home, a purpose and they will teach you what you need to know to get better.

Consider the Salvation Army.
