About this Facility

Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) -- Central Hispana is a peer-led 12-step support group in Salinas, California. They offer ongoing nonmedical support for those living with substance abuse, including specialized groups based on age, gender, culture, and other factors, all at no cost.

AA provides peer-led services within its local community, the core of which are recurring meetings that offer support and education for drug and alcohol addiction. Clients can participate in multiple groups as they see fit. While these are peer-led groups, clients also receive a sponsor within the group to act as a one-on-one mentor.

The 12-step model encourages positive changes in habits and thinking by guiding clients through specific stages at their own pace. Throughout the 12 steps, they learn to take accountability for their actions, forgiveness, spirituality, life and coping skills development, and self-compassion. Rather than simply addressing the symptoms of addiction, the 12 steps provide clients with physical and emotional support.

AA is free, but clients may want additional help from a paid recovery program. Private insurance, like Cigna, Aetna, Anthem, ComPsych, Humana, etc., often covers such programs. Clients should confirm their coverage before enrolling in such a program, as out-of-network benefits may vary.

Alcoholism

Alcoholism, or alcohol use disorder (AUD), is defined by alcohol dependence. This is a state the body reaches when it experiences withdrawal symptoms in the absence of alcohol. A person who has AUD craves alcohol and continues to drink despite adverse consequences. Because withdrawing from alcohol can pose health risks, individuals with AUD should seek professional alcohol rehab in California to overcome their alcohol addiction. This process typically involves medical detox, rehabilitation, and maintenance.

Drug Addiction

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.

12-Step

Participants engaged in 12 step programs receive intensive peer coaching (sponsorship) and community support. Spiritual development as a means of achieving psychological and emotional healing and growth is the cornerstone of 12 step recovery, but religious affiliations are not required. Meetings are free, anonymous, and open to the public, though specialized formats are available, including groups for seniors, teens, and family members. Evening, night, and day meetings are conducted year-round in most communities.

Family Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.
