Stockton Drug Rehab

Stockton understands that addiction is a disease and they are keen to let people know that help is available to those who have been affected. They also aim to make sure that finding help for drug or alcohol addiction treatment is easy, rather than being overwhelming. As such, a number of databases now exist with information on the various detox and rehab facilities that exist, including Christian, nonprofit, public, and private rehab centers. Additionally, there has been a significant investment in intervention specialists, to help encourage more people to get the help they need.

Specifically, Stockton has started the Substance Abuse Services (SAS), which coordinates all the drug and alcohol treatment efforts in the entire county of San Joaquin. The SAS also provides its own treatment, including residential and outpatient treatment, as well as help for those with co-occurring disorders.

Besides focusing on treatment, the SAS also emphasizes prevention. As such, they have developed numerous programs to encourage youths to be leaders and role models in terms of avoiding drugs. Additionally, they offer alternatives to peer pressure. Lastly, they develop across the board awareness about the impact of drug abuse.

The mission of the SAS is to integrate the various community efforts and make them competent, as well as culturally and linguistically relevant to the needs of residents in the country. It aims to do this through idea sharing, exploring change, and empowering care providers, volunteers, families, and consumers. Essentially, they aim to foster recovery and wellness, address disparities, and build hope by offering treatment that is based on the individual strengths of those who require detox or rehab treatment for substance abuse problems.
