Anyone can have an addiction, regardless of age, gender, health, race or ethnicity. The best treatment for drug or alcohol addiction is to attend an inpatient or outpatient program at an addiction rehabilitation facility. As such, it is important that people understand where and how to find treatment.

Struggling with addiction and seeking treatment can be challenging, however, especially if the person doesn’t have a strong support network of friends or family. For those looking to find addiction resources for a loved one, the options available can seem overwhelming. Fortunately, there are programs available that can cater toward adults, teens, veterans, college students and people from all walks of life.

Whether you’re searching for a specialized treatment facility or simply looking to learn more about rehab, The Recovery Village Palm Beach at Baptist Health has a variety of resources that can help you make well-informed decisions going forward. Use this guide to educate yourself and your loved ones on various groups affected by addiction.
