DetoxAbout Alianza of New Mexico
Roswell, New Mexico may be famous for Area 51 and speculation about aliens, but it’s also home to Alianza of New Mexico. This community organization has provided essential health and social services for underserved residents of southeastern New Mexico since 1993. While they don’t offer substance abuse treatment you can access harm reduction services and addiction treatment referrals along with other social assistance to start or continue your journey.
What started as an HIV resource center became a diverse program serving many needs. Their harm reduction services include syringe exchange programs and substance use disorder assistance as well as overdose prevention education. You can learn more about rehab options and access referrals for medication assisted treatment and different levels of care.
For me their Narcan training really caught my eye. Narcan is a medicine that rapidly reverses opioid overdoses. You’ll learn how to recognize an overdose and the steps to take to administer Narcan efficiently. They even offer free Narcan after your training.
Another great element is their culturally competent services. People of Latino and Indigenous communities make up much of Roswell’s population. They ensure you can access services from professionals who understand your experiences. You’ll benefit from comprehensive care tailored to your cultural and linguistic background.
I also think it’s great that they provide treatment referrals. Starting your recovery journey can be intimidating. Even if you just visit them for harm reduction services you can still learn more about your treatment options. That way you can get the help you need whenever you’re ready.
Their multifaceted organization doesn’t just offer harm reduction services. You can access non medical and medical case management and HIV and STD testing and prevention as well as housing assistance and much more. These approaches can help you enhance other essential aspects to benefit your journey.

Other Forms of Payment
Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.
FreeSliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care

Medically Assisted Detox Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Each drug rehab in New Mexico offers unique amenities and treatment methods. Common aspects of treatment include group and individual counseling, recreational therapy, medication management, and healthy living. Aftercare is often provided to prevent relapse.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Programs
Clinical Services
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
