If Michael Lohan can't help his own daughter Lindsay Lohan, then he is determined to help others. Lindsay's dad has decided to open a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center in California.

"Yes, it's, true, I'll be running it," Michael told Radar Online. "I think it's time that Dina Lohan and I both step out of the media for a while, and for me that means getting back to what I know best — helping people with addiction."

But Michael is getting backed on the center by "a really well known person," but he can't say who.

"But I have my entire team of therapists in place and the financing is done," he explained. "We're still negotiating the location."

And Michael plans to run a very strict center.

"I'm going to have a protocol that will be have to be followed. I don't believe in prescription drugs," Michael said. "If people come in on them they're going to have to get off of them, otherwise they'll be looking for another rehab."
