They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. Ask whether the groups are split by age, because in Savannah that can mean one mixed room rather than several.

Family work is a standard part of treatment, though how much of it varies a lot between centers. Visiting is usually restricted in the first week and opens up later. Ask what the family program actually consists of and how often it meets.

The records are protected, and the protection is specific to addiction treatment rather than general. Who you authorize, and what they are authorized to hear, are two separate choices on the same form. Ask how a claim through your insurance would appear, if that is the part that worries you.
