About Family Guidance Centers Inc

Family Guidance Centers, Inc. in Quincy, Illinois, is part of a statewide substance use treatment organization with 18 locations across Illinois and more than 25 years of experience. They care for people with substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions, and their approach centers on meeting patients where they are, with medication-assisted recovery at the core. Across the network, services range from prevention and harm reduction to hospital-based medically managed withdrawal, stabilization and transitional services, residential treatment, outpatient and intensive outpatient programs, and recovery homes. Walk-ins are accepted at every site, and no one is turned away because of inability to pay, lack of insurance, or citizenship status.

For opioid use disorder, they offer all three FDA-approved medications: methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone. For alcohol use disorder, they provide naltrexone, acamprosate, and disulfiram. Outpatient care is built from individualized combinations of individual and group counseling, case management, toxicology testing, and medication, while case managers help uninsured patients secure coverage without delaying treatment. To reduce barriers, they provide telehealth counseling, the 24/7 MAR NOW telehealth helpline, transportation help such as Uber Health rides and bus passes, and mobile outreach vans offering naloxone, drug-checking, peer support, and same-day medication starts, along with dedicated adolescent and mental health services.
