Lancaster Treatment Centers

Alpha Recovery Center in Lancaster, California offers medically supervised drug and alcohol detoxification with 24/7 monitoring, followed by residential inpatient and outpatient levels of care. The evidence-based program treats substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders, and accepts most major insurance plans.

Design for Change is a JCAHO-accredited drug and alcohol rehab on East Avenue J in Lancaster, California, where the provider says its program has run for more than 20 years with a deliberately low client-to-staff ratio. Care begins with sub-acute detox and continues into a 30-day residential track, with co-occurring mental health treatment, a family program and post-treatment support; a second Lancaster site operates on 16th Street West. Private insurance and self-pay are accepted, including plans from Aetna, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Anthem, Kaiser Permanente, Humana, Magellan, Health Net, TRICARE and ComPsych.

All for Kids provides a partial hospitalization program for children and adolescents in Riverside, California. With over a century of service, the nonprofit organization offers mental health day treatment with bilingual English, Spanish, and Korean language support. The program includes individual therapy, family counseling, and psychiatric care in a youth-centered environment.

Penny Lane Centers is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that cares for more than 3,500 abused and neglected children, young people and families every month across Southern California. Its substance use treatment sits inside that child-welfare mission rather than beside it, and the organization runs an Alternative Response Crisis Response Team in partnership with the City of Los Angeles — an alternative to a police response when a family is in crisis.
