Top Mental Health & Substance Abuse Treatment Centers in California

Expert Insights

I recently read an addiction-related book that brought me to tears several times.

The author, Janice Boyd, is from Rancho Cucamonga, California, and is a devout Christian. Her book is titled “Daddy Was a Heroin Addict.” The book reflects on her father’s influence during her young teenage years and into adulthood until his death at the age of 79. Her father was a heroin addict during all of those formative years. The author discusses her father showing up at family functions appearing to be happy, healthy, and funny.

What people did not realize, however, was that behind closed doors he was struggling with a heroin addiction that would eventually claim his life. She goes into detail about his troubled and dark sides that would emerge quite often, especially when he was in withdrawal, and how these traumatizing events shaped and formed her into the woman that she is today.

As someone who has been in recovery for 12 years, it made me reflect on how my actions impacted my own family and friends. I can only hope that the good that I have done and continue to do in my own recovery helps to mend the heartache I caused the people who I love the most.

We never intentionally mean to hurt our loved ones when we are in active addiction, but that inflicted pain is inevitable when addiction drives our every waking moment.

Cost of Drug Rehab in Rancho Cucamonga

The cost of drug and alcohol rehab in Rancho Cucamonga can be expensive. However, the costs do vary based on several variables, such as the type of facility or treatment program you’re admitted to. Since there’s no approximate answer to how much your treatment will cost, it’s best to have an idea of the variables that will affect the cost.

Here’s what you’ll need to consider:

Treatment setting (inpatient or outpatient)

Features and amenities (luxury or standard rehab facility)

Duration of program (30, 60, or 90 days)

Health insurance plan (private insurance, Medicaid, and Medicare)

Choosing a rehab facility in-network with health insurance provider

Government funding

Location (city vs. suburb)

The cost of attending a drug and alcohol rehab in Rancho Cucamonga shouldn’t be a deciding factor in whether or not you receive care. While insurance can make funding your treatment much easier, there are options out there for all levels of income.
