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

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, 1.6 miles away.

They treat young people from 12 up, so a parent calling from Waukegan about a teenager is in the right place.

They offer a program for people dealing with past trauma, which not every center around Waukegan does.

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

Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Waukegan.

It normally means continuing outpatient sessions, a prescriber if medication is involved, and free meetings. Free fellowship meetings run in most towns, cost nothing and need no referral, which is why they outlast paid programs. Ask to see what a discharge plan looks like before you choose the program.

Bring the list and bring the containers, and expect a prescriber to go through both. A prescribed benzodiazepine or opioid painkiller is the usual complication, and it needs a plan rather than a rule. Ask what their position is on prescribed medication generally, because positions differ.
