Question by *Astrid*: Will I qualify for WI Assistance Programs if I am doing outpatient drug treatment?
I used to work as a fulltime graphic designer, my hours have been reduced to half of what they were. I was told I may qualify for the Wisconsin FoodShare program and energy/heat assistance.

I went online to their website and filled out a partial survey which according to my income and other factors, I did qualify for food and energy/heat assistance. When I went to fill out the actual application, one qustion asked on this app was, “Are you being treated in a drug program?”

I do go to a local hospital with a pain clinic dr. who also can prescribe patients with suboxone which is used to get people off of opiates. I’ve been on the Suboxone for about 2yrs to get off of painkillers.

Will this automatically disqualify me from being able to get the assistance?

(FYI, my insurance from my job pays for the prescription and I pay for the treatment myself.) Thanks to anyone who can help!

Outpatient Drug Treatment Programs – Outpatient drug treatment programs – Using transitional therapy and housing to ensure recovery www.therecoveryplace.net (877) 903-2532 Outpatient drug treatment at The Recovery Place is successful due to the focus on life skills and progressive transition of care. Many residential drug and alcohol treatment centers cut their clients loose at the end of 30 or more days, with no transitional care. The Recovery Place knows that this method refuses to follow this destructive treatment modality in their drug treatment and rehabilitation. Once clients finish treatment in The Recovery Place residential drug rehab program, they transition to progressively independent living facilities. The TRP outpatient drug treatment program focuses on life skills management that is crucial if the addict is to remain clean. John, CEO of The Recovery Place explains, “Our community housing facility is where all of our patients live. They do grocery shopping, they eat together. They doing all of the things they didn’t do when abusing. ” John has been clean and sober for 10 years, and has a personal understanding of what works. As clients require less structure, they move into sober living housing, where they manage activities and chores with their peers.
