[QUOTE="DDD, post: 400806, member: 35"] I don't remember who, darn it, but one of the CD family members has a site that lists facilities by State. Perhaps it is in the archives? Maybe they'll pop in. All facilities are very very expensive based on my previous explorations. If you are going to need insurance company help to pay then contact your company and ask them for the facilities that are covered. Also ask them the parameters of care they have. For example when we sent easy child/difficult child to his first addiction center (which turned out not to be correct choice even though I had gotten recommendations) the insurance company contacted that center every week or two asserting that he should be discharged because he was "now substance free". It was not a detox center...it was suppose to be a treatment center. That caught me off guard. It had never occured to me to check on that aspect before taking him. The quality of care available really varies. One thing we learned was that many facilities were predominantly filled with court ordered treatment for teens. Our teen learned a heck of a lot of stuff that I would have preferred he hadn't. His second placement was far better but we still wsh it had been the first. So, take your time and explore and explore. It is not easy finding the right spot. Good luck. DDD [/QUOTE]
