Adolescent Wellness Academy (AWA)

They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Miami is set up for.

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Miami offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

Miami has 47 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

They treat teenagers as well as adults, which is the less common arrangement and worth confirming for Miami specifically.

There are 8 more within a short drive of Miami, so this does not have to be the only call you make.

The things worth comparing are the ones a program can answer with a fact rather than an adjective. Accreditation by a recognized body is a floor rather than a recommendation, and the absence of it is worth asking about. Ask what happens if somebody wants to leave partway through, because the answer says a lot about how a place is run.

Expect days for withdrawal management, weeks for a residential program, and months for anything outpatient. The early part of any program is mostly stabilizing, and the work people picture when they think of treatment starts after that. Ask whether detox time counts inside the program length or is added to it.

Going back into treatment is normal, and most centers treat people who have been through it before. A return to use that followed a move, a job loss or a death is a different problem from one with no obvious trigger. Ask about naloxone if opioids are involved, because tolerance will have dropped.
