Substance abuse research has demonstrated that client sexual orientation influences treatment outcomes. Consequently, many substance user treatment programs offer services for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) individuals. In a recent search of SAMHSA treatment listings, 11.8% (N=911) of substance user treatment programs (including residential, outpatient, and partial hospitalization) in the United States and Puerto Rico indicated that they offer specialized services for LGBT clients. However, a telephone survey we conducted in 2003-2004 revealed that 70.8% of these "LGBT" programs were no different from services offered to the general population, and only 7.4% could identify a service specifically tailored to the needs of LGBT clients. Implications for LGBT individuals seeking services are discussed, the study's limitations are noted, and future research directions are identified.
药物滥用研究表明，服务对象的性取向会影响治疗效果。因此，许多药物使用者治疗项目为女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和跨性别（LGBT）群体提供服务。在最近对美国药物滥用和精神健康服务管理局（SAMHSA）治疗机构列表的搜索中，美国和波多黎各11.8%（N = 911）的药物使用者治疗项目（包括住院治疗、门诊治疗和部分住院治疗）表示，它们为LGBT群体提供专门服务。然而，我们在2003年至2004年进行的一项电话调查显示，这些“LGBT”项目中有70.8%与为普通人群提供的服务并无差异，只有7.4%能够确定一项专门针对LGBT群体需求的服务。文中讨论了该研究对寻求服务的LGBT群体的影响，指出了研究的局限性，并确定了未来的研究方向。
