I don’t know about free. I have the same DOC, and here’s what I liked and didn’t like about where I went. Hopefully it’ll give you an idea of what to look for.
I was in a lock-down facility, which I would highly recommed because you’ll feel like hell once you start to detox and want to run out of there and go get high. Find a place that has a detox program; this means they can offer medication to help ease your withdrawl. What I didn’t like about where I went was that everyone there had a different drug of choice. Because of that, we could never focus on the issues that come with being a junkie specifically. Therefore, try to find a place that focuses mainly on opiate addiction.
Best of luck to you, heroin is a horrible drug as I’m sure you know. Hope this helped.
