About Us

We offer treatment plans that are both effective and financially accessible. More than 200 individuals utilize our Detox Program each year, nearly 1,00 individuals utilize the Residential Treatment program, and approximately 190 individuals register each year in our Outpatient Treatment programs.

The service area covered by ABC Recovery Center spans the entire Coachella Valley and County of Riverside.  It extends through the high desert area to Yucca Valley, Twenty-nine Palms and the California border town of Blythe.  95% of our treatment population comes from the Coachella Valley.

For the past 23 years we have operated a 40 bed recovery residence for those transitioning back into the community after treatment. We provide life-skills classes, access to job training programs through our local EDD office, assistance with job applications, replacing lost identification & social security cards and medical care with our visiting doctors & nurses’ clinical program.  This stable housing and the included supportive services give formerly homeless individuals the much-needed assistance to transition back to normal lives.  More than 3,000 individuals have lived in our Village since its inception.  The majority of those we have assisted have come as the referrals from our local shelters or as former clients of our treatment program.

ABC is the oldest program of its kind in the valley. At ABC Recovery Center’s inception, little was known about the treatment of alcoholism and addiction. Since our beginning in 1963, the industry has transformed into large corporations with the resources to provide evidence-based curriculum, as well as resort-like amenities. Today the addiction treatment field is a $35 billion dollar a year industry, with some local for-profit providers charging as much as $35,000.00 for 30 days of on-site treatment. ABC Recovery Center provides our community with comparable services for as low as $7,500 for a thirty-day period up to $25,000 which bills on a sliding scale depending on the financial abilities of the client.   These costs are further mitigated as ABC Recovery Center is one of only a few local recovery centers that accepts Medi-Cal for payment and accepts clients who have no means of payment.

Our campus can house as many as 135 men, women, and our client’s children under certain circumstances.  ABC Recovery Center has the only perinatal program in the Coachella Valley, treating addicted women with children in utero, and helping them into recovery, while caring for their unborn and/or newborn child.

Our campus is equipped with the ability to take an individual off the street into our detoxification program and support them for up to 2 years. The length of stay is one of the reasons ABC Recovery Center has so many success stories. Most other like organizations in our area provide a limiting 30 day stay in residential treatment before returning the client to the environment from which they came.  ABC returns our clients to an environment of greater comfort and security should that be their choice.  Our program managers make sure that when clients depart, they are prepared for the outside world.  They have money, a phone, a place to live, and job assistance.

ABC Recovery Center cares for family members as it cares for the client, as each family member will be impacted, often profoundly.  That’s why we offer them inclusion in the client’s therapeutic program when possible.

The members of client families are encouraged to be engaged in therapeutic sessions, to their comfort level.  This way, they are better able to bond with their relative throughout the duration of therapy.  This enables them to gather the “tools” so that they become better equipped to manage continuing care once the client is no longer receiving onsite services.
