Free Substance Abuse Treatment

The N-SSATS Report - Free Substance Abuse Treatment

Highlights:

Private non-profit organizations operated the majority of facilities offering “all free” care and “partial free” facilities (73.8 and 68.1 percent, respectively). Among facilities offering “no free” care, approximately equal percentages were operated by private for-profit (46.9 percent) and private non-profit (46.4 percent) organizations. Facilities offering “all free” care (51.6 percent) were more likely than those in the “partial free” (30.5 percent) or “no free” (20.6 percent) groups to offer non- hospital residential care. “All free” facilities were less likely than either “partial free” or “no free” facilities to have a specially designed group or program for DUI/DWI clients (5.2 vs. 28.5 vs. 30.5 percent).
