When someone in Shelby needs drug abuse treatment and doesn't have health insurance or the funds to pay for treatment in full, the Access to Recovery Voucher is possibly an option to look into. ATR is a federally-funded program which provides the means for individuals to access treatment facilities and support including inpatient, intensive outpatient, regular outpatient, continuing care, counseling, recovery and life coaching, skills building, vocational training, and transportation assistance. The ATR grant program provides those individuals with vouchers to acquire rehabilitation and recovery support services for substance use disorders at the provider of their choice. To qualify for ATR individuals must fulfill certain criteria, including: 1) must be 18 years or older, 2) have a history of substance use or abuse, 3) have a yearly income that is less than 200% of the Federal poverty level, and 4) reside in the counties or jurisdictions that provide ATR.
People interested in the Access to Recovery Voucher can contact ATR Service Coordinators in their area. If someone's original choice of program or rehab center isn't working out, they can consult with their coordinator to locate one that is and that accepts the ATR.
