No Matter What Recovery, a nationally recognized substance abuse and mental health program, is expanding to Austin, Texas, with a new 4,700-square-foot treatment center opening Saturday, November 14, firmenpresse reported.
The center, located at 1018 W. 11th Street in Austin’s Clarksville neighborhood, is designed specifically for LGBTQ+ individuals and their allies, offering comprehensive outpatient treatment for substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. The facility will also serve as a gathering place for local recovery groups.
But there is a catch: crystal meth abuse has negatively impacted the LGBTQ+ community, with a recent study finding that gay and lesbian use the drug more than three times that of heterosexuals.
Clients will also have access to psychiatric care, medication management and Medication-Assisted Treatment when clinically appropriate.
NMWR’s targeted approach addresses these disparities.
The challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community in Austin reflect disparities in access to care. Programs like No Matter What Recovery fill a critical gap in the healthcare ecosystem, offering services that are attuned to the lived experiences of the community they serve.
| Program | Location | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Partial Hospitalization | Austin, TX | 9am-3pm weekdays |
| Intensive Outpatient | Austin, TX | 9am-noon & 6pm-9pm |
| Chemsex Recovery | Austin, TX | Specialized treatment |
| Inpatient Services | Los Angeles, CA | Coordinated care |
We’re thrilled to bring that mission to Austin,
added Paulo.
The organization expanded beyond Southern California earlier this year with the opening of its Chicago location. This multi-city approach creates a network of care, addressing the needs of the LGBTQ+ community in regions where specialized resources are scarce.
This event makes recovery resources more accessible and welcoming for the LGBTQ+ community in Austin and beyond.
