Azure Acres Recovery Center

Our detox program offers a safe and comfortable environment in which individuals can rid their bodies of alcohol or other drugs prior to transitioning directly into residential care.

Residential treatment at Azure Acres is an intensive, comprehensive, and highly personalized experience that is based upon the foundational principles of the 12-step recovery model.

Residents who can benefit from less intensive step-down levels of care following residential treatment can get the support they need in our partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient phases.

Azure Acres has been providing life-changing addiction treatment services for more than 55 years. Of course, our programming has evolved through the decades to reflect evidence-based improvements in the science of addiction treatment, but our commitment to providing the highest quality of care remains as strong today as it did when we accepted our first resident in 1959. By providing person-focused treatment that is based on the time-tested principles and practices of the 12-step recovery model, we have been able to help more than 20,000 men and women take their first steps toward a drug-free future.

At Azure Acres, men and women in crisis have the opportunity to work with talented and experienced professionals, most of whom have personal experience with addiction and recovery. This combination of professional expertise, personal understanding, and a decades-long dedication to quality care makes Azure Acres a unique and effective option for men and women who desire to escape the constraints of substance abuse and chemical dependency.

As the sun rises over the secluded hills of Sebastopol, California, residents of Azure Acres wake up for a new day filled with recovery-based activities that are conducted in an atmosphere of comfort, safety, and serenity. Befitting a program that has served men and women in crisis for more than five decades, treatment at Azure Acres takes place in a historic lodge that was built in 1906. Azure Acres is a truly special place, with a rich history that features more than a half-century of successfully helping men and women overcome the compulsion to abuse alcohol or other drugs.

At Azure Acres, treatment is an intensive experience that incorporates the fundamental philosophy of the 12-step recovery model. Individuals who choose to heal with us are encouraged to apply the concepts of surrender, honesty, humility, and acceptance in their efforts to overcome addiction and resume their pursuit of healthy and productive futures. Azure Acres residents are expected to play active roles in their own recovery, and will work in close collaboration with dedicated professionals to identify and address the obstacles that have prevented them from achieving to their true potential.

In order to meet the unique needs of each person who comes to us for care, treatment options at Azure Acres include detox, residential care, partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient programming (IOP). And once a person has completed his or her course of treatment, he or she joins our vibrant alumni community, which includes thousands of men and women who are dedicated supporting each other in recovery. When your path of recovery begins at Azure Acres, you can be certain that you will never walk alone.

I’ve been clean and sober for close to 4 1/2 years. Still going strong. All this is because of what I learned at Azure.
