Questions people ask about Area Substance Abuse Council - Cedar Rapids/Downtown Office

Is Area Substance Abuse Council - Cedar Rapids/Downtown Office residential or day treatment?

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Cedar Rapids has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

Can you detox at Area Substance Abuse Council - Cedar Rapids/Downtown Office?

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

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

Is there a program at Area Substance Abuse Council - Cedar Rapids/Downtown Office for people like me?

One of their programs is built for veterans, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 15 named here.

What is there in Cedar Rapids that costs nothing?

Cedar Rapids has 86 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

Can any of this be done remotely?

Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Cedar Rapids differ on it.

Can I do a shorter program?

Expect days for withdrawal management, weeks for a residential program, and months for anything outpatient. Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient sit between residential and standard outpatient care, at a few hours a day. Ask how many hours a week an outpatient program actually takes, because it varies widely.

How soon could someone start?

One place can take somebody today and another in the same town is a month out. Many programs start the admissions paperwork during the wait, so the day a bed opens is not spent on forms. Ask to be put on a cancellation list as well as the main one.
