About CityTeam Oakland

CityTeam Oakland is a faith based addiction recovery and transitional housing provider in Oakland, California offering long term residential support for men, women and children facing homelessness, addiction and related life challenges.

I want to note that the program blends recovery focused mentoring, life skills education and career development within a free, privately funded nonprofit model.

CityTeam Oakland emphasizes restoration through community, spiritual care and practical tools that help participants rebuild stable and purposeful lives.

Faith Based Care

The Renew Program is a one year restorative residential program for men struggling with addiction and homelessness, while the Turning Point Program is a 6 to 12 month transitional housing program for women and their children ages 0 to 10.

Participants can expect trauma sensitive mentoring and 12 step meetings, case management and therapy, life skills and financial literacy classes and career counseling.

I think it's noteworthy that a strong faith based foundation, Bible studies and community outreach support long term recovery, family reunification and reintegration.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Teen & Adolescent Program

Typically, a young adult program in California can guide individuals from detox, through initial treatment, and extends to aftercare. Treatment gives young adults what they need to reset their lives and move to the next stage of life free from addiction.

Adult Program

An adult program in California uses various therapeutic methods to treat a person who is dependent on an addictive substance. Individuals aged 18 and older are eligible for treatment, which focuses on breaking the cycle of addiction and learning how to maintain sober living.

Alcoholism

Alcohol rehab in California provides professional treatment to guide participants through each step of recovery. Programs offer a support system to walk you through challenges and celebrate victories with you, from detox to long-term sobriety.

Men's Rehab

Gender-specific addiction treatment programs may be more effective in treating men because they focus on unique needs of males. Men’s rehab in California is designed to help men process emotions and cope with stress in a judgment-free environment.

Women's Rehab

Women’s rehab in California provides a safe environment where women can work through addiction challenges surrounded by their gender peers. This often creates an environment that is more conducive to recovery.

Opioid Treatment

For those who are struggling with opioid use disorder, help is available at opioid rehab in California. This complex addiction can be treated through a combination of evidence-based therapies and medication assisted treatment.

Drug Rehab

Drug rehab in California teaches participants constructive ways to stay clean and sober. Treatment revolves around helping individuals stop using the substance they are addicted to and learn healthy habits to avoid relapse.

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT)

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is an integrative, community-based care strategy designed to address the needs of persons with severe and/or complex mental illness or behavioral disorders. ACT is typically provided by a multidisciplinary team of medical and mental health care providers, social workers, therapists, and other specialists, including addiction recovery professionals. These services are frequently provided in the home and community to clients in crisis, those who are clinically unstable, and those who are unable or unwilling to travel to a hospital or clinic for in-person treatment.

Levels of Care

Aftercare & Alumni Program

Community support and relationship-building are key elements of aftercare rehab in California. You’ll receive recovery coaching, social support, and mentors to help you maintain sobriety after completing initial rehab treatment. This support will continue as long as you need it, which could be weeks or more than a year.

Inpatient Rehab

Unlike outpatient drug rehab, clients receiving inpatient rehab in California reside at the facility for the duration of the program. The length of stay may range from two weeks to 18 months or more, depending on the client's needs and the program’s design.

Detox & MAT

When you enter drug rehab in California, detox is the first step towards becoming drug-free. The detox process includes 24/7 monitoring and medical care and may include the use of medications to ease withdrawal symptoms.

Sober Living

California sober living has been shown to reduce relapse and improve recovery. These programs offer highly-structured living environments for those who desire to remain sober. House rules usually include abstinence from substances, participation in 12-step meetings, and contribution to household responsibilities.

Payment Options

Sliding Scale Payment

If you’re ready to enter a drug rehab program in California, but you cannot afford to pay the full amount, a sliding scale payment plan may be the solution for you. This option asks you to make payments in an amount you can reasonably afford on a consistent basis. To qualify for this discount, you must complete an application and provide supporting financial documentation.

Free Rehab

Most states offer free alcohol and drug rehabs through public mental health and addiction treatment centers. These centers often provide detox, intensive outpatient programs (IOPs), residential treatment, partial hospitalization programs (PHPs), and support groups. You must meet certain requirements in order to qualify for free alcohol and drug rehabs, such as lack of income and insurance.

Accepted Insurance

CityTeam Oakland works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.
