About this Facility
Since 1982, Phoenix House Academy of Orange County has offered effective residential treatment to adolescents ages 12 to 18 who suffer from substance abuse and co-occurring mental health problems. Located in a historic building on park-like grounds, the Academy provides a broad spectrum of evidence-based treatment services to help teens break the cycle of substance abuse. Residents continue their high school studies while taking part in individual, group, and family counseling, as well as cultural and recreational activities. We also refer clients to community partners who provide such services as career development, job placement, health care, and legal aid.
The Phoenix Academy residential treatment model for adolescents, which offers a strength-based, family-centered treatment continuum for teens with substance abuse and co-occurring mental health problems, has been designated as an evidence-based practice by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration’s (SAMHSA) National Registry of Evidence-Based Programs and Practices (NREPP, 2008) as well as a model program by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Juvenile Justice Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP, 2006).
All major credit cards are accepted. Payment options include the following health insurance plans: Anthem Blue Cross, APS Healthcare, Cigna, Kaiser Permanente, Life Synch/Humana, Managed Health Network (MHN), Value Options, and Health Net (from 11/2011).
