Substance Recovery · Michigan · Free

NIDA — federal research on drug abuse and addiction including LGBTQ+ populations. Worth contacting for harm-reduction services that meet you where you are, not where AA thinks you should be. LGBTQ+ AA/NA meetings are free, meet daily in most metros, and online options run 24/7. Sober dating, friendship, and sex are real challenges in queer culture; affirming therapists work with this directly. No cost — the program is grant-funded and confidentiality-protected.
