Stayed here when I was 18 back in 2014 case worker Ms Lon was amazing and all the other staff in the career center. Always made sure we ate good food. Mr Charles was a real one as well. They even had a music studio back then where we could make music and taught us how to make beats and record using protools. They even helped me get a job and my first apartment at 18. I miss those days love y all. This place definitely shaped who I grew up to be man the drive was real. Can t even thank y all enough.

Other Forms of Payment

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Treatments

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

Programs

young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

It's such a shame I had to give this place the lowest rating because honestly, I wouldn't give it even one star if I had the choice. This place is supposed to be a safe haven for the community, but it's failing miserably. They don’t respect people’s belongings, and their schedules are super confusing I always missed breakfast because schedules were different every time. I ended up having to sleep on the streets just because I didn’t make it back in time when in reality they would give a way my bed. Not sure why they hated me so much . It’s disgusting how some people still manage to abuse others, even after they’ve been through so much. Honestly, they need to fire the entire staff and bring in people who really care and aren’t just in it for the donations.

Supporting Covenant House California in their mission to provide homeless youth with a safe haven and opportunities for a brighter future has been incredibly rewarding. Their compassionate care and comprehensive support services make a significant difference in the lives of vulnerable youth. I wholeheartedly recommend Covenant House California to anyone looking to support and uplift homeless young people. It's been a privilege to collaborate with them and witness the impact of their work firsthand.
