About McAlister Institute East – La Mesa
Located in La Mesa, California is the McAllister Institute East facility. This facility operates under the McAlister Institute, San Diego’s largest provider of drug and alcohol treatment services. This organization currently offers 24 different treatment and recovery programs to adolescents, adults, and families who call San Diego home. Their La Mesa East facility provides evidence based, supportive, and confidential addiction treatment services to help you work towards a healthy and sober life.
This organization does a really good job helping support teens and their families through the addiction struggles that have impacted their lives. While their adult services are just as comprehensive, their teen and family programs are targeted, community oriented, and allow you to experience tangible skills development.
For example, there are ways in which families can receive intervention support for their loved ones if they know their loved one is experiencing a crisis and they don’t know how to address it.
There are also programs that allow you to become job ready after you complete treatment because there are vocational and on the job training programs. With these skills, you’ll be able to build up your sense of independence because you’ll have the skills to find gainful employment.
Many past clients have also appreciated the supportive care they’ve found here. There are programs that help offenders or those involved in the legal system reenter society with skills and strategies designed to help them succeed.
La Mesa is a reflection of the greater San Diego Community in that there is a diverse group of people who call this place home. You’ll find that the services offered through the McAlister Institute recognize this diversity, providing culturally competent care.
When you feel like you’re receiving treatment from someone who understands your cultural background, you’ll be more receptive to the treatment and programming they have to offer. Most importantly, this approach allows you to build meaningful connections with the care team that will support you.
