About Amity Foundation of California
Located in Vista, California, Amity Foundation provides residential and outpatient services to adults who would otherwise be marginalized due to engagement with criminal activity, incarceration, or trauma. They also provide services for those who have experienced racism, sexism, homelessness, or violence. Please note, this is not a traditional alcohol and drug rehab center.
The Amity Foundation residential program provides a home for men who have been incarcerated, are now back in the real world, and who need a focus for their lives. Participants focus on improving their lives and helping others who can learn from them and their life experiences. The program focuses on wellbeing, positive behavior, and mentorship.
The outpatient program offers education, prevention services, outreach, employment services, and prison programs. Clients work with staff to educate themselves, modify behaviors, treat underlying issues that have caused suffering in their lives, and focus on creating and achieving goals. This program also offers reintegration services.
Amity Foundation accepts most insurance plans, including Amerigroup, Anthem, Beacon, Magellan, Cigna, and ComPsych. They also work to support all those in need, so if money is an issue, individuals are still encouraged to seek their support.

Treatment
Alcoholism
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug Addiction
Drug rehab in California teaches participants constructive ways to stay clean and sober. Treatment revolves around helping individuals stop using the substance they are addicted to and learn healthy habits to avoid relapse.
Mental Health and Substance Abuse
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
Opioid Addiction
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Clinical Services
Individual Therapy
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
