Gays and Lesbians - Duanesburg, New York

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the option of attending a drug rehabilitation facility that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to go to one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal problems they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved.
