Finding a drug or alcohol rehab program in Georgia is easy. It's finding the right one that's hard. There are well over a hundred programs to choose from. And sadly, most don't work. Fewer than 1 in 5 addicts achieve long-term sobriety. most relapse soon after finishing their time in rehab.
Fortunately, these grim numbers don't tell the whole story. Effective drug and alcohol programs do exist. One program we often refer clients to achieves spectacular results...better than three and a half times the average.
In choosing the right program, there are many factors to consider: residential treatment or outpatient? Short-term or long-term? 12-step or non-traditional? Are replacement drugs used or is it a drug-free program? If the addict has already tried one approach unsuccessfully, do you try it again or something new?
The experienced drug and alcohol rehab professionals from Georgia Alliance can answer these questions and help you find a program that works for you or your loved one. For more information, please continue reading or call 1-877-315-6907.

There are some additional questions that are important
to ask them as well once you have a narrowed list of drug rehabilitation
centers in Georgia to choose from. These could include: What is your recovery
rate? Do you base your success on just a reduction in drug use or the
percentage of those who are now drug-free? Is your organization certified or
accreditated? What kind of follow-up and aftercare is incorporated? We
recommend a biophysical drug rehab, and Georgia is one of the few lucky states
to have one.
Often times the success of a drug rehab program in Georgia can depend on how they view drug and alcohol addiction as much as how they approach it. For example, a treatment center that views addiction as an incurable brain disease is less likely to be successful as one that shows people can and do overcome addiction permanently on a daily basis. The viewpoint that addiction is not a disease and that it can be beaten goes a long way, especially when the person in need of help can see that there is hope!
Cocaine and crack cocaine continue to be among the most widely available drugs throughout Georgia. Bulk quantities of powder cocaine are usually transported into the state and then converted into crack by the local wholesaler or retailer. Primary source areas for cocaine are Texas and California. While traffickers utilize several transportation modes, prominent methods of smuggling are the use of private or rental vehicles and tractor-trailers with increasingly sophisticated hidden compartments, travel routes, and counter-surveillance techniques. Colombian cocaine traffickers use the ports of Wilmington, Charleston, and Savannah as cocaine importation points, and these areas remain major transshipment centers for cocaine destined for Atlanta, other East Coast drug markets, and Europe. During the past year, several organizations (Mexican and Dominican) have been identified as responsible for bringing loads of 200 to 300 kilograms of cocaine to Atlanta for local consumption as well as transshipment to other parts of the region and East Coast cities.
Heroin availability remains stable throughout Atlanta. Seizures of street level amounts of heroin attest to the pervasiveness and the availability of the drug. Although heroin trafficking at times appears relatively low and stable throughout most of Georgia, there are regions where heroin abuse appears to be climbing. The sources of supply reportedly are located in Chicago, New York, and at the southwest border. The most recent domestic monitoring program report indicates that the predominant type of heroin in the Atlanta, GA area is South American. The purity of the South American heroin ranged from 51.8 percent to 65.4 percent. One exhibit was Southwest Asian heroin with a purity level of 40.5 percent. The Atlanta High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area report indicates more Hispanic involvement in heroin trafficking. Local law enforcement agencies in some outlying metro Atlanta counties indicate that heroin is becoming an increasing problem for their jurisdictions.
Methamphetamine continues to increase in popularity and has become more prevalent throughout Georgia, leading to a significant number of arrests and seizures throughout the state. This trend is particularly true in the Atlanta, Dalton, and Gainesville metropolitan areas. Especially alarming are indications that the number of clandestine methamphetamine laboratories in Georgia has increased drastically. There has also been an increase in the availability of ICE, in the Atlanta metropolitan area along with locally produced methamphetamine. Methamphetamine is produced in clandestine laboratories located within the state.
Atlanta is a transit city for
ecstasy to other U.S. cities. MDMA, GHB and
Ketamine (Special K) continue to be popular and remain readily
available in and around populations of young people (gyms, college campuses and
associated “hang outs”) throughout the state. LSD is usually
encountered at school settings and is imported to Georgia from the West Coast
via U.S. Postal Service packages or commercial express mail. The wholesale cost
of ecstasy, depending on location and amount purchased, varies between $3 and
$15 per pill and the retail price varies between $8 (Atlanta) and $40
(Savannah). Ecstasy is popular in the hip-hop scene and is readily available in
Atlanta’s nightclubs, “Rave” parties and concerts which target
the younger population. An emerging trend among young adults is “candy
flipping,” or combining MDMA and LSD, according to a local university
report.
Marijuana, the most commonly abused drug in Georgia, is readily available throughout the state. Mexico and the southwest border are the usual sources of marijuana imported and distributed in Georgia. The primary wholesale suppliers of marijuana are Mexican nationals. Local outdoor cannabis cultivation sites are increasing due to the normally ideal growing condition in the region. Because of DEA's eradication program and the recent drought, some dealers have resorted to hydroponic cultivation of marijuana.
Prescription drugs are widely available, with Xanax® (alprazolam), Valium® (diazepam), Dilaudid® (hydromorphone), Demerol® (meperidine), and Percodan® (oxycodone) being the most sought after. Current investigations indicate that diversion of hydrocodone products (such as Vicodin®), OxyContin®, and pseudoephedrine continues to be a problem in Georgia. Primary methods of diversion being reported are illegal sale and distribution by health care professionals and workers, “doctor shopping” (going to a number of doctors to obtain prescriptions for a controlled pharmaceutical), and the Internet. Xanax® and Lorcet® were also identified as being among the most commonly abused and diverted pharmaceuticals in Georgia.

Georgia Drug Rehabs
There are 70 drug rehab and addiction treatment centers within a 50-mile radius of Atlanta, Georgia. Unfortunately, only one-third of them offer any type of inpatient treatment, and even fewer offer residential rehabilitation of 30 days or more. National treatment statistics have shown that longer-term inpatient rehabs are more successful than one month programs.
Nearly 40% of the drug rehab admissions in Atlanta in 2004 were for primary abuse of cocaine, however, methamphetamine rehab admissions in Atlanta are continuing to rise faster than admissions for other drugs.

"Thank you so much for giving me the information on [the rehab program]. We visited it yesterday and [our son] will be going there next week. Without your kind guidance I would have never found out about this center. Kindest regards, E.M."
