Specialized Support for Adults and Parents

ABC Recovery Center provides trauma-informed treatment for adults, with a focus on accessibility and long-term healing. Located on a quiet 11-acre campus in Indio, California, the center serves clients through detox, residential, and outpatient care. Its perinatal program, the only one of its kind in the Coachella Valley, offers pregnant women and new mothers substance use treatment alongside parenting education and sober living accommodations for continued support after childbirth.

Extended Housing and Step-Down Care

Clients may begin with detox and continue into a residential program lasting up to 60 days, followed by a full range of outpatient services. Transitional housing and sober living options offer up to 18 months of additional support. These services help bridge the gap between treatment and community reintegration. Clients have access to life skills workshops, job training, and case management to support long-term stability and independence.

Affordable Care with Sliding Scale Options

As a nonprofit, ABC Recovery Center accepts Medi-Cal and provides care on a sliding scale for those without insurance. The center was founded with a mission to offer treatment regardless of financial circumstance and continues to serve clients from across the Coachella Valley and surrounding areas. Its accessible pricing model makes it a practical option for individuals and families seeking affordable care without compromising quality or length of support.

Integrated, Evidence-Based Treatment

Treatment is rooted in a 12-Step framework and combines individual and group therapy with evidence-based approaches such as motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral therapy. Clients with co-occurring conditions, including PTSD and suicidal ideation, receive care from a multidisciplinary team. Support services include relapse prevention planning, trauma-informed counseling, and medical oversight throughout detox and stabilization.

Family Involvement and Community Roots

ABC Recovery Center actively engages families in the recovery process through both in-person workshops and weekly online sessions. The program encourages healthy communication and shared tools for recovery.

How we research treatment facilities

Across the site, our team has conducted over 1,000 pre-admissions calls to better understand the patient experience, interviewed facility clinical leaders, performed facility background checks, and compared our information against trusted public data sources.

Our research process begins with data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), accrediting bodies including The Joint Commission and CARF, government licensing agencies, and other trusted sources. From there, our team conducts significant original research, including:

- Pre-admissions calls: We speak with admissions staff to get a candid picture of patient experience.

- Background checks: We review complaints from past clients, media reports, actions taken by accrediting bodies, and positive recognition from notable organizations.

- Clinical interviews: We have in-depth conversations with clinical leadership, often lasting up to one hour, that give us a better understanding of clinical care.

- Data partnerships: We ingest and analyze exclusive data that provides information about in-network insurance status, cost, and more.

Research varies by facility. Each facility profile shows which research steps we completed and when each step was last performed. Learn more about our research process and background checks.

How we evaluate treatment facilities

These data help us develop a Trust Score for each facility—a simple letter grade that helps you assess how much confidence to place in a facility based on the information available to us. Trust Score considers accreditation, operating history, notable recognition, and concerns identified during our background check. Our Trust Score is an objective rating that is never influenced by advertiser payment. Learn more about our Trust Score methodology.

Important disclaimer

We cannot guarantee the quality of treatment at any facility. We cannot independently confirm the accuracy of every data point, and some information may become outdated or change over time. A Trust Score is a starting point, not a guarantee of treatment quality or outcomes. Please contact us if you would like to update or correct facility information.
