Today in America...
 
Today in America, there are 13 million people in need of alcohol or drug addiction treatment. Fortunately, according the government, there are just over 13,000 drug addiction treatment centers waiting to help these individuals. It may have been too late for Shelly's dad, I don't know, but I do know that it is not too late for anyone who is looking for a drug addiction treatment center today.

Yeah, but how many of those 13 million people want treatment?

And sadly, probably 12,900 offer only one treatment modality/philosophy.

But you're right, there is treatment available for those who pursue it.

Welcome to SR Linko. Why don't you tell us about yourself and share some
E,S,H. Since we are not really allowed to give out or talk much about
specific treatment centers, we'd love to hear what's helped get you clean and sober.
