If you are an adult looking for help for yourself, an outpatient adolescent program like this may not be the right fit, and a helpline or your doctor can point you toward adult services nearby.

Licensing Record and Status
This facility is licensed or certified by the California Department of Health Care Services, and that status is confirmed. In practical terms, that means the state has reviewed the provider and allows it to offer substance use treatment, which is a basic reassurance when you are choosing care for someone vulnerable. One thing worth knowing is that its state record shows a program code of NON, which is unusual and can indicate a specific or nonstandard licensing category.
That is not necessarily a red flag, but it is a fair thing to bring up when you call. Ask the facility directly what kind of licence it operates under, and confirm the licence is current, before you commit to anything.

Since this is outpatient care, what does a typical week look like, including days and hours of programming? How are parents and other family members involved in treatment?
How does the facility handle a crisis, such as a relapse or a medical emergency, while a teen is in its care? What does it cost, what insurance does it accept, and how soon could treatment start? Write the answers down as you go, so you can compare them with other programs you may call.
