Participants attend a variety of activities, including community events and volunteer activities. "giving back" to the community is an important aspect of the recovery process. Mental health therapy and withdraw management detox are provided. Locations are in salinas, hollister, king city and san luis obispo. Health care services funded through medi-cal and private health insurance. Approximately 700 clients were served in the 2023-24 fiscal year.
