About Family Guidance Centers, Inc. – Chicago, Illinois
Family Guidance Centers, Inc. focuses on treating and preventing substance use disorders and associated conditions in Chicago, Illinois. This is a behavioral healthcare organization that is not for profit. They provide a full spectrum of care from prevention and harm reduction to treatment and recovery support. They are accredited by The Joint Commission.
They use FDA approved drugs such as buprenorphine, methadone and naltrexone for opioid use disorder. Their treatment approach involves meeting patients where they are in their recovery journey. Providing access to harm reduction materials and education is a key component of their strategy.
They run a medically supervised withdrawal management program in Chicago with Thorek Hospital that provides 15 beds for patients in need of withdrawal assistance. Upon discharge they link patients to medication assisted treatment (MAT) and additional services because they understand that detoxification is insufficient to treat opioid use disorder.
They offer intensive outpatient treatment services with an emphasis on reducing obstacles to getting methadone and other medications for opioid use disorder. Toxicology testing, case management, medication assisted treatment and individual and group counseling are all individualized components of their outpatient care. They treat alcohol use disorder with disulfiram, acamprosate and naltrexone. Treatment is also available for adults with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. They also provide services via telehealth, a hotline and a mobile van, and they offer transportation assistance to their patients in order to better support them.
Their aim is to make care available to everyone irrespective of financial situation or insurance coverage. Their case managers diligently seek suitable insurance options for uninsured individuals to receive immediate treatment.
