About Allen House Los Angeles Centers for Alcohol and Drug Abuse
Allen House provides residential treatment for drug abuse for adults, age 18 and older.
Services include Allen House, a residential drug abuse treatment program and Grace's Place, a transitional facility for female ex-offenders with children younger than 6 years.
The transitional program primarily serves homeless people and minority populations, though anyone is eligible for service.
The program is unable to accommodate people who are non-ambulatory, have a mental condition that would limit program participation, and applicants must be able to read and write at a third grade level.
There are no geographic restrictions.
The residential drug abuse treatment program is a six month program and includes individual and group counseling, services for people with dual diagnosis, alcohol, drug and HIV/AIDS education, physical fitness activities, and mandatory attendance of twelve-step mutual support groups.
New residents are restricted from outside calls or visitors, and must earn these privileges by working within the program.
A sober living facility is available for graduates of the residential treatment program.
