<p><strong>ABOUT ASHLAND HOME</strong></p> <p>Located in a suburban neighborhood of Laguna Hills, Calif., and founded in 1998, Ashland Home is a <strong>residential treatment center for women</strong> struggling with substance abuse. The 30-day program centers around the 12-steps of recovery, peer support, and mentorship. The facility also offers sober living facilities, though detox services are not available on-site. </p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Ashland Home provides <strong>non-clinical treatment while using 12-step programming and peer support</strong>. Treatment begins with a 30-day residential stay in which time women receive <strong>support and sober monitoring</strong> from their assigned peers. During residential care, residents may also participate in <strong>peer-led counseling sessions and educational workshops</strong>.</p> <p>After the 30-day residential program, women may continue their recovery by living the nonprofit’s <strong>nearby-sober living house</strong> for an additional year. Residents must remain sober, adhere to house rules, and commit to full-time work.

Lila and Pam each gave the facility five out of five stars for treatment effectiveness, meals & nutrition, and accommodations & amenities. Alum Lila also gave five-star ratings for the facility's cleanliness and for the likelihood they'd recommend the facility to others.
