Best Drug Rehab Center in Illinois?

Question by Nate Smith: Best drug rehab center in Illinois?
My friend’s mom is badly addicted to painkillers such as narcotics, Vicodin, etc and she wants to get help BADLY! She was in a bad accident years ago, and that’s how she got addicted. She has it bad enough where she’s buying pills from other people at $ 5 a pill.

I was wondering if anyone knows where to get a list of rehab centers in Illinois around the Chicago area? She’s looking for a place that is cheap enough since she has no insurance, but which also gives something else to the patients to help with the addiction, instead of just cutting them off completely. Help would be greatly appreciated
