Additionally, they provide many other support services such as housing opportunities, help with criminal justice issues, emergency support, and help for Veterans.

The facility accepts private insurance, Medicaid, and government funding for anti-drug programs.
A Continuum of Care in Fresno
Fresno is in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley and is recognized as the top agricultural county in the United States. Yosemite National Park is less than two hours away and is the perfect day trip for those looking for a natural place to unwind and destress.
The Fresno facility offers inpatient detox for men. Additionally, medication assisted treatment (MAT) is available for all adults and helps clients detox from opioids and alcohol on an outpatient basis.
Clients receive the continuum of care with treatment of co-occurring mental health disorders while in the program. There are also outpatient mental health programs for adults.
One nice thing about the residential programs at the Fresno facility is the accommodations for parents. Both men and women can bring their children. Recovery residences offer clients a substance-free, safe environment for recovery for those at risk of homelessness.
Education, Prevention, and Criminal Justice Assistance in Fresno
The facility offers many supportive services, including HIV testing, a health and wellness center, street outreach, homeless prevention, and community outreach for mental health. There are also programs to prevent risky behavior in youth.
The criminal justice services include rapid rehousing, justice involved case management services, crime reduction, and jail diversion services. Case managers help clients with employment assistance and vocational training.
Assisting Veterans in Fresno County
It’s nice to see that there are programs offered for Veterans and their families. Veterans can get help obtaining their benefits and obtain temporary financial assistance. They also have transitional living facilities for men, women, and children.
