Outpatient drug and alcohol treatment centers provide rehab and support to those in El Cenizo who are unable to pay for inpatient or residential treatment, or for persons whose situation do not allow for an inpatient stint at an alcohol and drug rehab facility. Outpatient drug rehabilitation services are taken advantage of often by people in El Cenizo who wish to maintain a robust support system after they have completed a residential or inpatient facility, as part of an aftercare facility which is often known about well ahead of time and devised by professional drug and alcohol rehabilitation staff. This works to decrease the risk of falling back into drug use, and provides a forum for people in El Cenizo who are recovering from drug addiction to be able to handle any bumps in the road to their complete recovery.
