Casa de las Amigas has been granted full accreditation by the Comission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF).

Casa de Las Amigas is a licensed and fully certified recovery home for women seeking treatment for alcohol and drug addiction. Because our facility is neither a hospital nor nursing facility all participants must be well enough to participate in required activities.

Casa de las Amigas' recovery concept emphasizes a three-pronged approach to treatment based on mental, physical and spiritual recovery. Casa’s loving but highly structured residential treatment program includes a variety of activities designed to enrich the spirit, mind and body, while providing a supportive environment in which the healing and growth process can begin.

Casa de las Amigas requires new participants to arrive with a minimum of 24 hours of sobriety from alcohol and/or other mind-altering substances or undergo detoxification before entry into out residential or outpatient programs.

The family plays a critical role in the recovery process. We encourage reunification among families that have been broken apart by alcohol and drug addiction through weekly family group sessions, where we provide education about the disease of addiction and offer suggested road maps for family members to utilize as they and the recovering family member begin to heal together.
