Treatment for Young People in Indiana

Indiana treatment spans the full ASAM continuum, from weekly outpatient counseling to intensive outpatient (IOP) and residential care. Programs commonly address alcohol use, marijuana dependence, stimulant misuse, and prescription drug misuse, often using cognitive behavioral therapy and the Matrix Model. A teen IOP usually runs about 6 hours a week under ASAM's adolescent criteria — lighter than the 9-plus hours ASAM sets for adults — so students can stay in class. Indiana expanded Medicaid through HIP 2.0, which widened coverage for these services.
