About the Program: At É«ÖÐɫ’s Assisted Outpatient Treatment (AOT) program in Orange County, you have the opportunity to connect with a group of people who are here to be your support team.

We know that the journey to recovery can be a tough one, and we believe that no one should have to go through it alone. We have a multidisciplinary team that includes peer specialists, personal service coordinators, Master-level therapists or social workers, nurses, and psychiatrists who are all here to help you on your path.

Your recovery starts with a carefully tailored treatment plan according to your specific needs. While you may be joining the AOT program because of a court order, or voluntary participation, we want you to know that, for us, it does not matter how you got to this point, what matters is that you feel better in your life and we are here to help you do that. We work with you to meet these needs by assigning you a case manager who can help you with life skills coaching, co-occurring treatment, obtaining benefits, and community integration.
