Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of going to a drug treatment program that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians.

While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved.
