Are There Free Drug Rehab Facilities/programs in Georgia?

Question by holli08: Are there free drug rehab facilities/programs in Georgia?
My dad seems to be addicted to Xanax. He is currently in jail for a couple of things that happened last week after taking 12 Xanax in a day (we believe). I believe that he is probably taking other drugs as well. I don’t know a lot about Xanax abuse, but he goes into these fits of rage and does and says things he would never do in his right mind and then later swears he didn’t do them. We are all very worried about him. He is also epileptic and had 3 seizures about 4 months ago and almost died. He had another seizure while in jail 2 days ago. I really want him to go into a treatment facility, but he has no insurance. His lawyer says that if we can find one that is free that he can get a court order for him to go to it. This whole situation is so stressful.
