A Specialized Residential Program for Trafficking Survivors
Vera’s Sanctuary is a licensed residential drug treatment program designed specifically for young women who have survived human trafficking. The program also serves pregnant women and prioritizes support for those who may not have reliable family or housing stability.
Withdrawal Management and Structured Residential Treatment
Care includes withdrawal management (detox) and residential treatment across multiple levels of care. Programming centers on group and individual counseling, along with case management and trauma-related support. The facility also offers services for co-occurring mental health needs, helping residents address substance use and emotional safety at the same time.
Privacy and Calm in a Nature-Based Setting
Located in Trabuco Canyon, the campus is a remote, scenic property surrounded by nature and wildlife, an environment intended to feel restorative rather than institutional. Residents have their own private bedrooms, which can support a greater sense of privacy and stability while they begin to rebuild routine and trust.
Education, Job Readiness, and Day-to-Day Life Skills
Treatment extends into practical rebuilding. Residents receive support with education and vocational planning, job training, and internship opportunities. Daily life also includes a culinary program tied to sustainable gardens, along with yoga and meditation as part of the health and wellness program, tools that help residents practice self-care and plan for life after residential treatment.

View all facilities in FloridaHow 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.
