Innvovative and effective outpatient treatment to end addiction
Drug and alcohol problems affect one's daily life and the lives of those around them. We offer outpatient intervention and treatment for adults, as well as intervention and prevention programs for elementary and middle-school children and their families. We recognize that family members are often affected by a loved one’s addiction. Family members are encouraged to ask about our counseling services.
Family & Children Services is part of the system of care administered by the County of Santa Clara's Department of Alcohol & Drug Services (DADS). This means that our clients come to us through the County's referral system, which coordinates clients' treatment along the continuum of detoxification, residential treatment, outpatient treatment combined with transitional housing, and outpatient treatment.
