BreakFreely Launches New Website to Help the Addiction Community

BreakFreely.com Lists Only Licensed & Accredited Drug and Alcohol Addiction Treatment Centers.

Indianapolis, IN, August 01, 2018 --(PR.com)-- BreakFreely.com is the first-ever online locator service
that identifies only licensed and accredited addiction treatment centers in the United States, which have
been verified by an extensive vetting process. This website provides factual information for people
looking for drug and alcohol addiction treatment.

Finding the appropriate addiction treatment center can be overwhelming for patients and caregivers.
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, there are over 14,500 addiction treatment facilities in
the United States. The industry is mostly unregulated, the type of treatment offered varies greatly, and
people seeking treatment may not know the questions to ask to make the most informed decision. All
these choices make finding the right treatment for addiction difficult and confusing.

As stated by federal organization SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration), the need for quality substance use disorder treatment facilities is critical. An estimated
21 million people over the age of 12, or one in 13 people in the United States, are believed to have needed
treatment for a substance use disorder in 2016. Yet, only 3.8 million people received any form of
substance use treatment.

BreakFreely.com was created to bring truth and clarity to the process of choosing an addiction treatment
center. Although there are over 14,500 centers in the U.S., BreakFreely.com has approximately 4,800
treatment centers in its database, because it only lists licensed and accredited centers. These centers are
licensed by their state and accredited by Joint Commission, CARF (Commission on Accreditation of
Rehabilitation Facilities), and/or COA (Council on Accreditation). These are federally recognized
accreditation organizations. BreakFreely.com allows one seeking treatment to filter on other patient
preferences like type of treatment, location, gender, and forms of payment to name a few. There are no
ads, no sponsors, and does not have an 800# or call center. Instead, each listing includes the direct
number to the treatment facility along with the Google street view photo to show an accurate picture of
the rehab center. In the resources section of BreakFreely.com there are suggested questions to ask each
center to help narrow down choices. The goal is to provide as much factual and transparent information as
possible for people to make their own informed decisions.

“We spent years verifying the information available on the site. We have reviewed the information
provided for each center and verified the accredited services, accurate physical locations, phone numbers,
and website addresses. We are committed to continually improving and validating the information we
provide.” - Missy Held, Co-Founder, BreakFreely

“We are building a community around help and support for addiction. We crowd source information to
allow for the reporting of inaccurate facts, which we will then research and verify.” - Kelly Urban,
Co-Founder, BreakFreely
