New Program in Southern California: Bakersfield Recovery Station

Welcome, Bakersfield Recovery Station

We are pleased to announce that the Bakersfield Recovery Station opened on June 1, 2020!

This program was created in partnership with Kern Behavioral Health & Recovery Services.

The Bakersfield Recovery Station is a brand-new program model and the second substance use treatment services (SUTS) program that Telecare operates. The 10-client, short-stay, voluntary program provides screening, access, and linkage to care for individuals with co-occurring mental illness and substance use needs. Services are strength-based and person-centered and aim to promote recovery in a welcoming setting.

Address:

312 Kentucky Street
Bakersfield, CA 93305

Who is Served:

Adult residents of Kern County who are intoxicated from either alcohol or drugs, and are referred to the Recovery Station. These individuals previously may have been arrested for public intoxication and/or taken to unnecessary psychiatric crisis programs. Clinicians and peer staff will engage clients to connect with ongoing substance and/or mental health services, ensure linkage and “warm hand-offs” to other community-based services, and post-discharge follow-up.

Hours of Operation: Staff are available 24/7
