About Us

Since 1974 we have been providing services to the recovery community, starting as the Mendocino Alcohol Project. The Ukiah Recovery Center, a Ford Street Project, was established in 2015, and is continuing to provide withdrawal management, outpatient treatment, and residential treatment services.

Our goal is to empower the clients we serve by providing them with the skills to see their own potential through daily classes and individualized sessions. We strive to help our clients create the life they want to have, using compassion and attention to the individual's specific needs while celebrating their diversity and differences.

A Counselor will work with you to create an individualized program to address the specific needs and barriers that have kept you repeating unhealthy patterns.

Our Programs & Services

Our Residential treatment program offers short-term (30 days) or long-term (31 days or longer) stays, depending on the needs of the client. Clients attend daily groups, weekly individual sessions, social outings, offsite 12-Step meetings and participate in vocational classes in our certified organic garden and commercial kitchen.

Medication Assisted Treatment

While the Ukiah Recovery Center does not operate a stand-alone MAT clinic, we do fully support our clients who choose to include FDA approved medications as a meaningful part of their recovery journey. We believe that the use of medications (methadone, buprenorphine, naltrexone, acamprosate, and disulfiram), in combination with counseling and behavioral therapies, provides an individualized, "whole person" approach to the treatment of substance use disorders. The goal is to save lives and help people with their recovery, including the ability to live a healthy and self-directed life.

Withdrawal Management

LIC: 230004AN (07/01/2025–06/30/2027)

Our Withdrawal Management program is a three-to-fourteen-day Social Model Detoxification, where the length of stay depends on the needs of the client. Clients are provided a round-the-clock environment to safely detox and prepare for the next phase of their recovery.

C.A.R.E. Group

A support group is one of the most important parts of sustaining recovery after treatment. All visitors require Ukiah Recovery Center staff's approval and must attend the Community Aftercare Recovery Environment (CARE) group at the start of the first visit. The group is 30 minutes and is held every Sunday from 12:30–1:00 PM.

LIC: 230004BN (02/01/25–01/31/27)
