Addiction Treatment Center in New York

LICR understands when it comes to substance abuse treatment there have always been many choices available. With at least 830 addiction treatment centers in New York, we know that the research process itself can be overwhelming. Additionally, bad publicity in the national media surrounding unethical rehab operators, has left many wondering where to turn to for treatment?

The bad publicity, unfortunately, has lumped the good and reputable addiction treatment centers in New York together with the ones that truly deserve to be singled out for bad practices. Unfortunately, all these factors have had negative impact on the addiction and overdose situation in our country to the point that many families are unsure how to find the treatment that their loved ones desperately need.

United States is losing close to 150 lives a day due to heroin/opioids epidemic. More than ever we need addiction treatment professionals to provide effective treatment to seemingly ever increasing number of struggling individuals with this disease.

The scrutiny on the bad actors and the legal actions on the operators of unethical facilities is welcome. Let’s hope this will clear the industry of the tarnished reputation caused by few.

Our treatment facility, LICR, has been operating as an ethical addiction treatment facility since 1995. We invite you to visit our addiction treatment center in New York and inquire about our programs. To learn more about us please visit our history page.
