Update: the conditions are absolutely brutal. There is no way this place is habitable, and they get away with it because nobody cares. LAHSA won t take complaints because they re not DMH related whatever that has to do with anything. Staff refuse to answer questions, make fun of LGBTQ people, and the admin refuses to do anything about it. Every day, someone gets stabbed or punched or something, and every day, first responders are outside the door taking someone away. The case managers will exit you no matter what you say or do and they won t revoke the notice no matter how wrong they are. This place is a walking lawsuit waiting to happen. One of the admin told me jail is better than that place and I d like to see a jail that s worse than this place. They really do treat us like we re criminals here, and if you say something about it, they ll throw you out. Oh, and don t worry, they ll wait three weeks before they give you your 30 days notice so that you only have a few days left before you have to leave so you can t make any plans to go anywhere else.This place has to be the worst place to go for help and it s gotten worse and worse and it s getting worse by the second. I complain to every department I can, and nobody cares. Nobody answers. I m 7 days away from getting exited for not communicating with my case manager and they lied to me about the reason on the notice. They lied to me about communicating with my case managers through DMH. They lie about everything and they get away with it. You re safer on the streets than in here.Don t come here. That s the only explanation needed.For those who want the longer one:They refuse to put me into housing navigation.They refuse to let me sleep.They refuse to exit the girl who got physical with me.There s no hot water.The food is hamburger helper and brown lettuce with cherry tomatoes.The staff degrade and lie to you.Basically, they want you to fail and be completely dependent on them because they make money off every person they keep in here.

Your experience here is taking steps to once again be independent. If you have mental health issues they help you with that. My experiences have been nothing but a positive one. I appreciate the hard work and dedication counselors give to push you forward. The thing is you have to want it and make an effort to put the work in to better yourself.

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.
sober-living iconSober Living Homes
Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.
12-step icon12-Step
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Drug rehab in California teaches participants constructive ways to stay clean and sober. Treatment revolves around helping individuals stop using the substance they are addicted to and learn healthy habits to avoid relapse.

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
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

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

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.

Also a veteran airmen so Mr. Watson picked me up from Van Nuys CA halfway house and enrolled me in to Bell’s Veterans Outreach program for which he is the Coordinator. My Bell case mgr was Bryan who also is a veteran. Both of the men and veteran Marines were engaged in my day to day programs and transition. I was homeless after 27yrs in prison with nothing… I enrolled Lin a veteran peer support program at LMU and attended AA/NA online mtgs weekly. I got my birth certificate, CDLs, and SSN Card while at Bell Shelter… all amidst COVID protocols and testing Aug. 2020-Jan 2021. My entire success is based on support and social services that I was introduced to and enrolled in … DOR, VOA, VST, VPAN, LMU, N.A./AA mtgs. and great Bell caring administrators, staff n security … the food n comfort sleeping w/ tv access were GOoD too!!

Great place if you want to get shelter, food, and counseling. Also a great place if you are seeking a road to recovery.

It's alright except that most of the Mexican Hispanic staff there are very disdainful toward guests and therefore lack compassion for working at a Christian homeless shelter. Almost like if they're often taunting you.
