What programs does AIDS Alabama Inc offer?

Is treatment available in a language other than English?
They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Birmingham are in it too, or only the one to one ones.
How long would I be in a program?
Days for a detox, weeks for a residential stay, months for outpatient care. Longer time in treatment is associated with better outcomes, which is why the step down to outpatient care matters. Ask what happens on the last day, and what gets arranged before it.
Is there a bed available now?
Waits tend to be shortest at the levels of care people ask about least. A medical need moves someone up a list, and withdrawal risk is the usual reason. If the wait is long, ask what the next level down could start on.
