This place saved my life. Today marks my 4 years clean. Im not embarassed or ashamed of the years I spent in crystal meth addiction. If anything, I want people to be aware that it can happen to anyone. Many people may not even know this story of my life. I have only one picture that a police officer took of me, who saved my life, & told me I was going to a better place. I only wanted to try it once because other people around me were. That turned in to long nights of partying, that turned into running on the streets of Fresn... read more

This treatment center gave me a new start at life. I wanna completely hopeless before my time at The Camp, and while I was there I was met by the kindest staff I could possibly imagine, ate amazing food and was given hope. I had a case manager who worked with me to set up a successful and ideal game plan, and he did everything in his power to make it possible. I couldn't be more pleased with my stay at the adolescent unit. I have had a happy profitable life ever since I left treatment.

When I joined the camp, I had no idea what I was getting into. I was 17 and I thought I knew what was best for me, and rehab was CERTAINLY not what I had in mind. However, if it was really up to me I would still be running a muck and doing drugs with strangers in abandoned crack houses...so my parents made the best choice and told me to suck it up for 45 days of no substance. I didn't want to comply. I just wanted to go home and be with my "friends". I honestly was not concerned with anyone or anything there and believed I d... read more

I came to The Camp as an adolescent in 2014 and I am still sober. A few of the people I went here with are also still sober. The staff actually care and I learned a lot here. Most people that go to any rehab don't stay sober, it only works if you actually want it. If someone doesn't want to be sober no rehab in the world will work for them. I felt like the staff actually cared about me and they changed my life for the better.

Two days before Christmas we dropped our 17 year old son off at The Camp Recovery Center. This was not an easy decision but the words of his therapist at Kaiser CDRP, "This is a matter of life and death", were ringing in our ears. My son had been a standout athlete with a tremendous personality and a deep compassion for others but marijuana, alcohol, Xanax, heroin and probably many other substances had robbed him of these qualities. We were left with an angry, combative, isolated young man. As my wife and I followed the ... read more

Dude, people's reviews literally crack me up. So here's the deal - it's rehab. There are things that naturally come along with the whole thing. There is likely a decent chance that at some point in a rehab facility drugs will be around. You know, it's kind of in the realms of happenings when there are a bunch of drug addicts around. The Camp tries to make sure that doesn't happen - a locked campus, they search bags before you enter, they do random drug tests throughout your stay. But it still happens, because addicts have ... read more

I love this place. the camp literally saved my life. I was 80 lbs and covered in track marks when I came here. I decided between rehab or offing myself. my parents opened their hearts up to let me come here. they paid the money to get me in because my insurance wouldn't cover it. they're not supremely wealthy people so this was asking for a lot. but they still did it for me. the only way the camp works is if you work what they teach you there. you can force an addict to admit themselves but you can't force them to change. if... read more

The camp changed my life. I entered the camp a broken 33 year old bartender with nothing to look forward to in life. I was a full blown alcoholic, needing beer just to wake up. The staff was amazing and from all of the people I have met in recovery, the camp has always been spoken of the highest. Sending someone off the rehab is scary because you never know if your loved one is going to take the information that they are given and put it to good use, or throw it away the moment they leave. No matter how good anyone is, ... read more

A close family member recently completed both the inpatient and outpatient programs here. I attended the inpatient family program as well as a couple nights of the outpatient program. I also met separately with one of the therapists. From my experience, the staff really seem to care and be effective at what they do. Are there problems? Sure, some are mentioned in other reviews. But the fact that all of the staff is in recovery themselves and can speak from experience meant a great deal to my family member. Although no one "w... read more
