Answer 1 :
Your best source of information would be your local hospital. They should be able to reference you to a drug center and know of places that take indigent patients. Good luck! =)
Answer 2 :
There will be a state or county run rehab in Houston. Usually there is a waiting line for those - of a couple months. Anything free has a long waiting line.
Answer 3 :
If you need help getting off drugs I am sure any shelter or drug rehab will help you. Good luck!!!!
Answer 4 :
Should be pretty easy this time of year. Not many addicts seek help when the weather is nice. I help folks in Atlanta, Ga. get into treatment. I have got you a list of some free treat ment centers in Houston. 1. Cheyenne Center 2. www.rightstep.com 3. Set Free Drug and Alcohol Treatment Center 4. www.texasclinic.com 5. www.council-houston.org Good Luck and God Bless You Peace and Grace, Marshall

Answer 1 :
Unless there is a provision in your parole that says you can't have anything, including prescribed medications, all you will need to provide is proof that the drugs were legally prescribed by the doctor, and that you were taking the medication in accordance to the instructions given by the physician.

Answer 1 :
call that intervention show thats on A and E 1800 662 HELP i know they help people from all over . i hope your sister gets help i know that is a very powerful drug and the damage it can do. good luck
Answer 2 :
Then after you call the help line the fist lady put in there, get a hold of a mental health place and get her into profetional mental health to find out why she feels she has to self medicate in the first place. Or maybe they do that in dug rehab places?? She could more then likely get on the state medical who would pay to help her? This is what it is there for. Good luck
Answer 3 :
That's a good idea angiebro had, but you can also try your "County Hospital"... Try calling your Chamber of Commerce in your City, and they should be able to steer you in the right direction. They should be able to direct you to a Hospital that is "state funded" for help in the case the patient has no money. Good Luck, I know how tough drugs are to kick, but she sure is lucky she has you to begin with. God Bless! =)
Answer 4 :
go to http://www.treatmentusa.com and see if you can find a place. if you aren't able to find a place, just fill out their form and they will help you find one.

Teen Challenge is a good place to start. They have centers all over Texas. Teen Challenge is one of the oldest, largest and most successful programs of its kind in the world. Established in 1958 by David Wilkerson, Teen Challenge has grown to more than 170 centers in the United States. If you would like to know the story of how Teen Challenge started as told in the book "The Cross and the Switchblade," visit our store where you can order a copy of the book. According to the 2002 National Survey on Drug Use, an estimated 7.7 million individuals age 12 or older were in need of care for an illicit drug problem. Furthermore, an estimated 18.6 million persons age 12 or older were in need of assistance for an alcohol problem. Teen Challenge has responded with action to statistics like these. Providing residential and non-residential care for thousands of men and women seeking freedom from life-controlling problems, Teen Challenge has become their answer. In the process of breaking down the addiction cycle, Teen Challenge has become a solution to the addiction crisis. Teen Challenge is known throughout the world for providing successful recovery programs. Enthusiastic law enforcement officials, judges, mayors, governors and other prominent community and country leaders advocate the mission of Teen Challenge. Several United States presidents have voiced their appreciation for the unique work of Teen Challenge. Teen Challenge is structured to allow flexibility in meeting the needs of those whose lives have been shattered by addictions. Where residential care is needed, Teen Challenge offers a well-developed, multi-phased discipleship training program. Teen Challenge also provides extensive non-residential assistance through personal and group sessions. Prevention programs are provided to thousands each year through public school assemblies and church meetings. Teen Challenge has significant impact on local communities. By the time an individual enters Teen Challenge he has typically had almost every relationship and family tie shattered that might be helpful in recovery. He has usually formed strong relationships with people and groups that actually perpetuate the addiction spiral. After completing Teen Challenge, hope is restored to more than just the addict, but to the family as well. Solid, positive relationships within community and family are also re-established. Teen Challenge involvement in a community facilitates a reduction in drug-related crimes in the area. Prevention efforts within the community improve since recovered addicts exert a profound impact on family, friends, and community. The economic cost to society is reduced and restored men and women become contributors to their community. Teen Challenge even participates in community projects, outreaches, food bank services, correctional facility meetings, thrift stores and work projects. Many Teen Challenge programs offer assistance and referral services to the community. Residential Program Many of our centers offer a one-year residential program for adolescents and adults designed to help men and women learn how to live drug-free lives. During their 1-year stay, they do not hold down outside jobs, as all of their attention is focused on the program. We challenge the residents to embrace the Christian faith. We see that when they do, their lives are transformed and they find true meaning and purpose. Residents follow strict rules and discipline. All residents adhere to a daily schedule which includes chapel, Bible classes and work assignments on or near the grounds. For information on Teen Challenge's curriculum visit the Teen Challenge Curriculum Page or contact us at tcusa@teenchallengeusa.com or call (417) 862-6969. While most of our centers are for adults, some do offer residential programs for teenagers. Please contact the Teen Challenge center nearest you to find out what services they offer. To get information on a specific Teen Challenge center it is best to contact that center directly.

Answer 4 :
I used to work at one of the best in Dallas - Green Oaks Hospital. Also, as a previous counselor, it is advisable to go to a unit that is not close to home for the addicted.
