Contact Directory
How to contact National Rehab Helpline about a listing, a correction or the directory itself.
This number connects to our central helpline, not directly to a listed facility.
National Rehab Helpline helps people looking for drug rehab centers find treatment options and take a practical next step. We are not a treatment provider ourselves. Our role is to connect people who reach out with programs in their area and to answer common questions about what different types of care involve.
If you are trying to understand where to start, we can talk through the options and point you toward services near you.
When you contact us, we listen to what is going on and ask a few simple questions about your situation, such as the substance involved, how long the problem has continued, and whether you have tried treatment before. We then explain the kinds of programs that may fit, such as outpatient counseling, intensive outpatient care, or residential treatment, and describe what each generally involves. We can search public treatment directories, including the California Department of Health Care Services treatment facility list and the federal treatment locator at findtreatment.gov, to find programs in your area that accept new patients.
We do not provide medical advice, diagnose conditions, or recommend one specific program over another. The choice of treatment always stays with you. If you are in immediate danger or someone is experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
The clearest way to reach us is by email at contact@nationalrehabhelpline.com. Send a message any time and describe, in as much or as little detail as you are comfortable with, what kind of help you are looking for. It helps to mention the city or state where you want treatment, since programs and availability vary by location.
You can also visit nationalrehabhelpline.com to browse information about drug rehab centers and treatment options before you write. We answer questions from individuals, family members, and friends, and reaching out for someone else is welcome. If the situation is urgent or unsafe, do not wait for an email reply; call 911 or contact local emergency services right away.
