Gateway Foundation - Alc and Drug Treatment/Gurnee

They provide outpatient. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Waukegan is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Waukegan, 1.8 miles away.

Gurnee has 11 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

They prescribe 2 medications: buprenorphine and naltrexone. What a provider actually stocks changes, so ask for the one you need by name before driving to Gurnee.

They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25, alongside programs for adult men and adult women, which is more than most places around Gurnee name.

Most programs will say plainly whether they sit on a court's approved list. Whether a program satisfies a particular order is a question for the court or the officer rather than for the center alone. Confirm the program is approved before the first session rather than after it.

Both get treated together at the programs that do this properly, by one team. Whether a psychiatrist sits on the team, and how often you would see one, separates programs here. A program that cannot answer these questions is telling you something useful.

It depends on the level of care. Outpatient care is designed to fit around a job. A medical leave of absence from a college is normally reversible, and usually a better record than a failed semester. Look at what your own employer offers before you tell anyone anything.
