About Alternative Services Inc

For many residents of Porterville, California, Alternative Services offers help working through substance use disorders (SUD) and the legal problems that often come with them. Adult men and women can access outpatient addiction counseling and get referrals to other recovery support services. 

For me, convenience is a huge factor, and with a Porterville Transit bus stop nearby, there’s no reason to worry about driving. Porterville also has a great on-demand ride service called transPORT, providing another economical way to get to treatment.

Personalized and Caring Outpatient Treatment

When you choose an outpatient addiction treatment program, you want to work with professionals who get to know you and your story before creating your treatment plan. Several clients mentioned the “empathetic staff who helped guide them through the personal challenges of addiction recovery.” I appreciate the personalized approach to treatment because everyone comes with a unique story and needs. 

Support for Clients Facing Legal Issues in Porterville

It’s not uncommon to run into legal problems when you’re also trying to manage SUD issues. They not only offer SUD counseling but they also help clients charged with a DUI. Whether the court has ordered you to get into treatment, or you come on your own because you want to avoid future DUIs, you can access DUI education and counseling. 

Recovery Resources for Long Term Sobriety

I appreciate that as part of the Porterville community, staff can refer clients to local recovery groups. If you participate in group therapy then you may also find connections with others who are working on recovery. 

Alternative Services is close to several helpful community resources like a bakery right around the corner and the Porterville Library less than a mile away. They accept Medi-Cal and may even offer a sliding scale fee.
