Introduction
Roots Through Recovery has been providing comprehensive, trauma-focused addiction and mental health services in the Long Beach community since 2017.
What our patients say: Roots is the most welcoming, supportive program they've ever attended. Many have tried multiple treatment programs before but haven't felt understood, or their underlying issues weren't addressed. Treating SUD and co-occurring disorders through a trauma-focused lens helps patients heal and find long-term recovery in a community of peers who care.
What our staff say: Roots has allowed them to flourish in their careers, and given them the opportunity and support to learn who they are, professionally and personally. They love the creativity and freedom they're given in their roles.
