Looking for care in your own town?

Addict Outreach lists verified national services. It does not keep a live database of local clinics, and we will not show you a facility or phone number we cannot confirm. For treatment near a specific ZIP code, use the official locators below. They are maintained by the organizations responsible for that information.

Pick the closest one and we will filter the directory.

How we verify listings

Every listing in our directory shows the last date our team confirmed it. National organizations change programs and phone numbers over time, so call or check the official website before relying on a service.

Browse by category

The directory is organized into the categories people most often need. A listing can appear in more than one.

Three ways to start

Talk to someone, fill out a form, or find treatment yourself

Whichever way feels possible right now is the right one. All three are free, and none of them commits you to anything.

Calls are answered by Find Your Recovery, our free treatment matching partner. This is not a crisis line: call 911 for a medical emergency, or call or text 988 for crisis support.
