Access To Recovery Alcohol & Drug Treatment Centers In Alaska

Access to Recovery (ATR) is a grant program that provides vouchers to substance abuse users who need treatment. Access to Recovery drug and alcohol rehab centers in Alaska accept vouchers from the program.

ATR is provided on a federal level, by agencies like the US Department of Health and Human Services and SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration), and vouchers can purchase unbundled services that best meet the needs of the individual.

In Alaska, there are several alcohol and drug rehab programs, especially those for Alaska Natives, that accept Access to Recovery Vouchers as payment for services. The Access to Recovery program provides access to rehab programs and much more for those who are in need.

Additional uses for the Access to Recovery Program vouchers include:

• Intensive outpatient treatment
• Mental health and co-occurring substance abuse issues
• Medical services
• Housing support
• Peer recovery resources
• Family/parenting resources
• Spiritual and cultural support
• Transportation
• Transitional living facilities (up to 60 days)

Drug and alcohol programs in Alaska that accept Access to Recovery vouchers receive some form of state or federal funding. Private rehabs that do not accept any form of public health insurance like Medicaid would not be eligible to accept ATR vouchers.

In Alaska, Access to Recovery was expanded to cover the Native Alaskan jurisdictions, which has been helpful since nearly two-thirds of those in need of help never get it due to a lack of financial resources. Access to Recovery has helped thousands of Alaska Natives since its implementation and continues to help thousands more throughout the country.

Access to Recovery rehabs in Alaska also receive state funding to help with operating costs and can offer a broad range of services for those in need.

If you are looking for a rehab in Alaska that accepts Access to Recovery vouchers, it is important to contact the program first and check for availability and any qualifying conditions to your ATR enrollment.
