Watchung, New Jersey - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the choice of going to a drug treatment program that is specifically designed for them.

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