About MHS Joshua Tree Center for Change

MHS Joshua Tree Center for Change is located on Twentynine Palms Highway in Joshua Tree, California. They are located in a one-story shopping plaza with onsite parking in the desert community of Joshua Tree. They offer counseling, crisis care and other services court-referred clients, including those with mental health and substance use disorders.

The center is surrounded by restaurants and commercial businesses and is located close to the Desert View Conservation Area and Joshua Tree Friendly Hills Park. They are the designated behavioral health and substance use disorder treatment provider for San Bernardino's Drug Court, which I think is a valuable and necessary service.

Crisis Treatment and Counseling Services

Their services include crisis treatment, counseling and case management for those struggling with mental health issues. In addition, they offer education programs for mental health issues and access to prevention programs for substance use disorders. They also offer you community referral services to access additional levels of care and community support.

Servicing Court-Referred Clients Only

The Center for Change is supported by Mental Health Systems, a non-profit agency that was founded in 1978 to support the wellness of those facing mental health challenges and substance use disorder. They support families, individuals and communities in the surrounding area.

I think it's notable that this facility specifically supports those who have been referred by the court for mandated treatment programs with the hopes of helping you avoid incarceration in the future, and in providing you with lasting tools to maintain your sobriety. They also prepare you to live an independent and healthy lifestyle.

Socialization Skills to Support Sober Living

They will support you for developing safe socialization skills to support your sober living. They also offer services to help you avoid relapsing into addiction.

Their counselors are based in the community and will assist you with providing referrals to various community support programs. These services will provide you with lifelong care and support to promote your lasting sobriety and to help you avoid any additional criminal charges for drug-related issues.
