Rehabs In Central New York

Drug and alcohol addiction is a disease that is affecting millions of Americans on a daily basis. It is nothing unusual to read in the paper about crimes being committed, with drugs being an underlying factor. It is equally not unusual to read about young people dying as a result of overdoses or drug deals gone bad. In recent years, research has shown that it is more cost effective for local and federal government to invest funds in helping addicts receive treatment, rather than sending everyone off to incarceration. In Central New York, there are several facilities with good reputations and long track records of helping addicts find success in recovery. Here is a list of a few of them:
