Why Support All for recovery?
A study published in 2014 by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Association, a branch of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, reported the following:
In 2013, 22.7 million persons (aged 12 or older) needed treatment for an illicit drug or alcohol use problem (8.6% of all U.S. persons aged 12 or older).
Of these 22.7 million persons, only 2.5 million (roughly 11%) received treatment at a specialty facility.
Thus, 20.2 million persons (7.7% of the U.S. population aged 12 or older) needed treatment for an illicit drug or alcohol use problem but did not receive treatment at a specialty facility in the past year.
Of the 20.2 million persons who were classified as needing treatment but did not receive treatment at a specialty facility in the past year, only 908,000 persons (4.5%) reported that they felt they needed treatment for their illicit drug or alcohol use problem.
Of these 908,000 persons who felt they needed treatment, just 316,000 reported that they made an effort to get treatment.
The most commonly reported reason (37.3%) for not receiving treatment among this group of persons was a lack of insurance coverage and inability to afford the cost.
These statistics are devastating and, sadly, not enough is being done to address the issue. The data shows having insufficient financial resources is the most common obstacle keeping hundreds of thousands of people from accessing the addiction treatment they need. All For Recovery intends to do its part to change this narrative. Donate today to join us in our fight.
Become a monthly donor.
Your donation will provide those without insurance or the financial means the opportunity to attend a 9-month treatment program and/or cover their first month's rent in a specialized recovery housing setting. The cost for a 30-day treatment program can often run upwards of $30,000. Thanks to the generous help and support of our partners, we are able to provide scholarships that cover the full cost of a 9-month treatment program for less than $21,000 (you can find the breakdown of the 9-month treatment program below). Recovery housing allows those who have lost their jobs the opportunity to live in a secure environment with a house manager and others also in recovery. The monthly cost for recovery housing can range from $500-$700 per month.
Your monthly donation will help AFR’s efforts to connect those seeking help with proper treatment and/or recovery housing and ultimately the opportunity to be in an environment that allows for a successful transition into the community.

The Power of Treatment
Partial-Hospitalization (PHP)
30 days ($9,000)
A Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is a type of addiction or substance abuse treatment. This program caters to people needing a higher level of care than a standard outpatient program. On that same note, it does not restrict you as much as a residential or inpatient rehab. A PHP helps people recover from addiction in an environment that allows for a successful transition into the community.
• The length of stay at this level of care is generally 30 days – based on clinical necessity.
• Includes 6 hours of group, 6 days a week (totaling 24 clinical days) & individual sessions.
• Expert clinicians to provide specialized services including:
- Mindfulness/Meditation and Yoga
- Vocational and Career Groups
- AcuDetox Groups
- Motivational Interview, CBT, and DBT
• Case Management services to include social service benefits and aftercare.
• Weekly monitored urinalysis.
Intensive Outpatient Treatment (IOP) 60 days ($5,000)
Intensive Outpatient Addiction Treatment is the most flexible treatment option with the least restrictions. This program is specifically designed for individuals struggling with addiction and co-occurring disorders.
Once the Partial Hospitalization Program has been completed, the client is generally ready to step down to a level of care that provides some structure and accountability, but with more freedom than at the higher levels of care. IOP includes group therapy multiple days each week and is implemented according to a client-specific treatment plan.
• The length of stay at this level of care is generally 8 weeks – based on clinical necessity.
• Includes 3 hours of group, 3-5 days a week (totaling 30 clinical days over a 2-month period) and individual sessions.
• Acclimate back into the community with employment and educational assistance.
• Weekly monitored urinalysis.
Outpatient Treatment (OP)
180 days ($6,000)
Long term recovery management group coordinates monthly recovery meetings where clients who have transitioned into a recovery-oriented lifestyle to be successful in their recovery.
• Includes 2 hours of group, 1-3 day per week & an individual therapy session.
• Outside of clinical treatment, clients are working and going to meetings.
• Weekly monitored urinalysis.
Recovery Housing
up to 30 days ($500-$700)
Recovery housing is a safe, transitional, and structured home to live where occupants are held accountable during their stay. They also have access to support through housing managers and other housemates in recovery.
• In close proximity to public transportation.
• Weekly house meetings.
• Weekly monitored urinalysis.
