McAlister Institute

McAlister Institute has a corporate office in El Cajon, California that can connect teens and adults to various drug and alcohol treatment facilities operated by the organization. They provide a comprehensive range of services that offer clients structure and flexibility for their recovery journey.

McAlister Institute accepts numerous payment plans, including Medicaid, Medicare, state financed insurance, and self pay. They also have financing plans available for guests without insurance coverage.

Wraparound Recovery Services

At McAlister Institute, they want to target all aspects of healing and recovery. Along with providing counseling sessions to get to the root cause of your addiction, they also include helpful services such as parenting classes, educational workshops, domestic violence support, and vocational training.

Relapse prevention is a vital part of their program. Their team understands that the first few months after treatment are often when many people face substance use triggers. This service provides coping strategies to avoid these issues and maintain their sobriety.

Assistance with Reentry and Housing

The facility offers reentry assistance services to help clients be prepared to begin living an independent sober lifestyle. I like that they also offer housing assistance, as the stress of not having a home can sometimes cause individuals to relapse.

The staff can also link you to a variety of other community resources to help you be successful in maintaining your sobriety. McAlister Institute’s corporate office is located just 20 minutes outside of San Diego. One client expressed that the organization helped them to become a better version of themselves.
