West Virginia State-Funded Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers

The state of West Virginia is the owner of two rather unfortunate distinctions: it has one of the highest rates of overdose fatality in the country, year after year, and it also has one of the lowest per-capita incomes. This means that, although many of the state’s residents need critical and immediate help for their alcohol and drug addiction, they often find themselves without the means to get quality treatment. This gap in affordability and accessibility is shared with many of the areas of the country. More recently, however, many state budgets have accounted for their growth rates of SUD sufferers and have set aside more money for treatment.

State-funded treatment programs are paid through a variety of means, whether it’s through individual state funds, Medicaid subsidies, or another source. These facilities tend to be outpatient only, as inpatient treatment is considerably more expensive. We offer a full database of West Virginia state-funded rehab centers and are ready to help you find the best option for you or your loved one. Once you find the facility that can best suit you or your loved one’s care needs, talk to their admissions staff to find out what state funds are available to you and how to proceed.
