Question by deirdre s: Can someone please tell me how to find drug rehabilitation centers in Salamanca, New York?
I have a friend who died due to the adverse effects of heroin. For a time, I was just angry at drugs, angry at the people who were doing drugs. Don’t they know that they’re hurting their loved ones by doing that? But then I realized that my anger won’t do me any good at all. So now I have decided to help out. I would like to become an addiction counselor and I need to ask around at various rehabs about the requirement before I become one.

Wow. I’m glad that you were able to realize that being angry won’t solve anything. I applaud your decision of wanting to become an addiction counselor. I think having experience in doing social work will really help you. I think you have to take up a program or a few courses on addiction counseling before you become qualified, but it varies between drug rehabs, I guess. Anyway, to find them, you can use the links below. You can also browse through the local phone directory or call your local health services department to ask for a list of drug rehab centers near you. 🙂 Good luck! I really hope you succeed in pursuing that endeavor.
