HOW OUR HELP LINE WORKS
For those seeking addiction treatment for themselves or a loved one, the Addictionblog.org helpline is a private and
convenient solution.
Calls to any general helpline (non-facility specific 1-8XX numbers) for your visit will be answered by
American Addiction Centers (AAC).
Caring admissions consultants are standing by 24/7 to discuss your treatment options. These representatives work
solely for AAC and will discuss whether an AAC facility may be an option for you.
Our helpline is offered at no cost to you and with no obligation to enter into treatment. Neither Addictionblog.org
nor AAC receives any commission or other fee that is dependent upon which treatment provider a visitor may
ultimately choose.
For more information on AAC’s commitment to ethical marketing and treatment practices, or to learn more about how to
select a treatment provider, visit our About AAC.
