This center primarily treats substance use disorders, helping you stabilize, create relapse-prevention plans, and connect to compassionate support.

Located near Ventura, California, the center helps men recover from alcohol and drug addiction.

It welcomes those on medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and uses proven methods to rebuild self-worth, self-esteem, and community involvement. The center offers many types of therapy that support mental and emotional healing.

Education sessions, morning meditations, and skill-building workshops help residents understand addiction and build healthy, sober habits for long-term recovery.
