The program offers bilingual, bicultural care for substance use and co-occurring disorders, with dedicated tracks for adults, men, women and young adults.

CHCADA is committed to culturally responsive, accessible treatment that meets people where they are and removes barriers to recovery.

Culturally Responsive Addiction Treatment

CHCADA's core focus is outpatient substance use care delivered in both English and Spanish designed around the needs of low-income Latino and marginalized populations.

The Sacramento program serves adults including criminal-justice-referred clients, through gender and age-specific programming.

Treatment incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and individual counseling to help clients identify the patterns driving substance use and build healthier coping skills.

Sessions address both addiction and underlying co-occurring mental health concerns supporting lasting, whole-person recovery.

Programming for Every Life Stage

Beyond general adult care CHCADA offers tailored tracks for men, women, and young adults.

This structure allows clients to receive support that reflects their unique life stage and experiences fostering a more relevant and connected treatment environment.
