Instead of being locked inside a rehab facility, you can live and work on a farm with other young people -kind of like the old hippy days. My grandson has a bad drug problem and kind of a working farm, rehab, hiking,therapy commune sounds like something kids would go for. As of now, only the rich have access to top notch rehab. Current rehab centers not working very well.
