When an individual in Lafayette needs substance abuse treatment but doesn't have private health insurance or the funds to pay for treatment in full, the Access to Recovery Voucher is an option to look into. ATR is a federally-funded program which provides the means for qualified people to access treatment facilities and services including inpatient, intensive outpatient, regular outpatient, counseling, continuing care, life coaching and recovery support, vocational training, skills building, and transportation assistance. The ATR grant program allows individuals with vouchers to purchase treatment and recovery support services for drug abuse disorders at the provider of their choice. To qualify for ATR individuals must fulfill certain requirements, including: 1) be at least 18 years of age, 2) have a history of substance use or abuse, 3) have an annual income that is below 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 the person's initial choice of treatment or facility isn't working out, they can consult with their ATR coordinator to find one that best fits their needs and that accepts the ATR.
