How much does treatment cost?

Accepted Answer

Founded in 1975, New Chance has focused on providing treatment to uninsured and underinsured individuals for decades.

New Chance also offers treatment for individuals with Medicaid, private healthcare insurance, or through a private pay basis. Please call to set an appointment to speak with our staff to determine the options available to you. Every client and situation is usually different, so there is no "standard" answer available regarding the cost for treatment services.
