Re: Addiction Centers
Your website offers a ton of quality information to your community.  I work with American Addiction Centers (AAC) – the largest collection of online resource for those suffering from substance use and mental health disorders. Our goal is to guide as many people to help as soon as possible before more lives are lost to drug overdoses.  I think the following pages would be a great addition to your resource section:

Re:  Referral Network for addiction treatment practitioners and facilities.
Sara writes:  “Our mission is to break down the barriers and stigmas that surround substance abuse with free, accurate, and valuable information. 
Why is our site worth sharing?

• It is difficult to find reliable information on addiction and rehabilitation on the internet, so we created a site that provides up-to-date, accurate, and evidence-based information related to addiction, substance abuse, mental health, and treatment.
• The facilities chosen for our Top 10 lists are put through strict criteria during examination, which you can find on our “How We Choose” page. No facility can submit themselves or pay to be on a list.  
• Topics are selected based on research, which tells us what our audience may be looking for, which types of addiction individuals across the nation may be facing, and which types of treatment may be most helpful and effective.

Please check out our site https://www.addictionresource.net/ and pass it along to others.”

Re: Substance Abuse resource

You can review the guide at https://harmonyplace.com/resources/.
The services offered are based in the Los Angeles, CA area.

Re:  FreeRehabCenters.Net - https://www.freerehabcenters.net/
Our mission is to connect individuals to clear and accurate information about recovery centers in order to arm individuals and their support systems with the ability to make choices that lead to long-term recovery. We also believe that spreading free, valuable information regarding substance use and co-occurring disorders can help break the stigmas and taboos many people hold toward these issues.
 
We’re excited to share with you our compiled a list of the best free, and cost-reduced detox, alcohol, and drug rehab centers in the U.S.  https://www.freerehabcenters.net/>  Select your state and/or city for local resources.  For example, if you live in North Carolina. Here’s the link: https://www.freerehabcenters.net/north-carolina/.

What's different about our list is that it provides information on non-profit, free, or cost-reduced facilities only. This resource can be helpful for those with no insurance, low-income families, people without housing, among others. 
Editor note: Emphasis is on low cost to free treatment for a broad range of substance abuses. State-wide or major cities can be searched for local resources.

Re: Mental health and substance abuse services
Rehab.com LLC, "The Help Company," recognizes that not everyone has access to the best quality care within their communities. A 25% increase in anxiety and depression has been seen worldwide due to the Covid-19 pandemic and we're still seeing its impact on mental health and substance abuse nationwide. 
Our company envisions a world where barriers to recovery do not exist, care is ubiquitous and accessible, and good health is possible for anyone who aspires to it. With that said, we set out on a mission to create the best possible platform to provide people across the nation with access and guides regarding mental health and substance abuse resources within their own community. You can take a look at what we've been doing at: https://www.rehab.com 

Our core values are transparency, community, and neutrality. We are committed to the visibility of all providers, no matter their size.

Re:  Alcohol abuse and Peer Pressure
Angel writes: "It's sad to think that many of us know someone suffering from a mental health condition or addiction. To make things worse overdose, alcohol-related deaths have topped 100,000 and 95,000 annually (respectively) in the midst of the pandemic. Social drinking is so ingrained in society these days that it's very important to understand the differences between social drinking and binge drinking."  This resource explores many aspects of this.

A resource from Defining Wellness provides a tutorial on many forms of peer pressure and how that may be a contributing factor to excessive drinking. https://www.bluecrestrc.com/dealing-with-peer-pressure/

Addiction Help is one of the only educational websites founded by a recovering addict, an addict’s spouse, and a board-certified addiction doctor.  See the link here:  https://www.addictionhelp.com
Editor: This website covers a broad range of addictions and mental health issues including educational, treatment and recovery resources.  It broadly defines “addictions” and “mental health” and discusses many topics not covered by most websites.  It is evident that the founders, clearly want people to have a better life.
