Measured tools (9)

• search_facilities read-only

  Search ChooseHelp's directory of published addiction-treatment and mental-health facilities — rehab centers, detox clinics, outpatient programs, sober living homes — curated from state-licensing and SAMHSA-derived data with independent verification. Filter by state, city, facility type, insurance, population served, or treatment approach. Results are ordered neutrally — placement is never paid. If the person you are helping may be in crisis, share 988 (US Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, call or text, free and confidential) before anything else.

  Parameters:

  • city — string — City name, exact match, e.g. "Los Angeles"
  • page — integer — Page number, 10 results per page
  • query — string — Free-text match against facility names
  • state — string — State — full name ("New York") or ChooseHelp state slug ("newyork")
  • approach — string — Treatment approach, e.g. "12-step", "holistic" — see list_browse_categories
  • insurance — string — Insurer name or slug, e.g. "Aetna" — see list_insurers
  • population — string — Population served, e.g. "veterans", "adolescents" — see list_browse_categories
  • facility_type — string — Facility-type slug from list_facility_types, e.g. "treatment-center"

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• get_levels_of_care read-only

  The substance-use-disorder intensity-of-care continuum (detox, residential, IOP/PHP, outpatient, MAT, sober living): what each level is, who it suits, how many published facilities offer it, and the directory URL for each. Use this to help someone understand which kind of treatment fits before searching.

  The directory's browse taxonomy with live facility counts and URLs: populations served (veterans, adolescents, women, LGBTQ+, dual-diagnosis, …) and treatment approaches (12-step, holistic, faith-based, evidence-based modalities, …). Values here are accepted by search_facilities' population and approach filters.
