[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 748924, member: 18958"] Dear Dallas In my area there are programs through the Rescue Mission for indigent people such as a sober living home, treatment options, and where room and board are free. There are also Salvation Army rehab programs (and Teen Adult Challenge and Victory Outreach, and others) that have similar arrangements. This is where men and women go when they want to stop drugs and alcohol. If they do not want to stop, they stay far away, as the need for sobriety and following rules, cramps their style. There are options for your son if he wants to recover. In jail he is likely off drugs. He can choose to keep it that way, by going to one of these options. He does have places where he can go. If he wants your help, ask him if he wants you to contact by phone various programs, to identify options. Maybe you can find one that will accept him right out of the gate. You are NOT his only option. Far from it. But you are likely the easiest one. Take care. [/QUOTE]
