Are There Any Addiction Treatment Programs Offered in Albany?

Question by joy: Are there any addiction treatment programs offered in Albany?
I’m from Albany, New York and I want to enroll in a addiction treatment program. I’m not an alcoholic or a drug addict. I just want to learn more about the nature of addiction treatment programs because I’m doing a documentary about it. It will really mean a lot to me if anyone replied. Thanks.

You’re doing a documentary? That’s really cool. Can I help? I know a bit about treatment programs because I researched about it (my brother’s into steroids). I’ll post some sources about facilities that offer addiction treatment programs. I’m pretty sure there’s one in Albany. Good luck with your documentary! I hope it turns out great.
