Is it possible to get someone involuntarily placed in alcohol rehab in Kansas?

Question by nyeviolet: Is it possible to get someone involuntarily placed in alcohol rehab in Kansas?
We live in Kansas. My husband has a very severe alcohol addiction. He has decided that he is ready to seek help. However, we have no insurance, and not even enough income to cover our basic bills. How can we get help for him, when we have no money? Is there a way to have him involuntarily committed, that would get the state to pay for it? Serious answers only, please! I am going through enough without having to deal with a bunch of idiots!

Yes through a Court Order signed by a Judge with the comprehensive evaluation by a Medical Professional. You need to contact the Social Service Agency in your County and talk with them to determine if a program exists for Kansas Medicaid Payment.
