What to Expect in the Home
You’ll find furnished bedrooms, comfortable common areas, on-site laundry and other home-like amenities included.

It’s meant to feel like home but with a solid routine and real accountability for you.
You’re expected to go to work or school or even volunteer while you live here. Chores are shared with everyone living in the house and drug testing is part of the deal. If you’re coming out of rehab or trying to avoid going back this kind of consistency can be a lifeline.
Rooted in Community and the 12 Steps
Rivara House isn’t just about staying sober. It’s about learning how to live again. They really encourage 12 step meeting attendance and give people the space and support to dive deeper into their programs.
Everyone is on their own but they are walking together which brings a really strong sense of community. You won’t feel like you’re going through your journey to recovery alone while you’re here.
Built for the Long Haul
There is also a big emphasis on life skills. Whether it’s managing money or learning how to communicate better all of the residents are given tools to support them in recovery. Some people say this was the first place they ever felt seen and supported and that kind of environment can make all the difference.

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
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.
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.
