Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Auburn, IL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.
