How do I tell two programs apart?
Compare what each one actually provides rather than how each one describes itself. A program willing to tell you who it is not suitable for is usually being straight with you about the rest. Ask whether the person on the phone works for the center or for a referral service.
Is there a waiting list?
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 told if an earlier place opens, then check back rather than waiting to be called.
