Vera’s Sanctuary is a GODSEND. They helped me get clean. I learned skills to help control my emotions. They gave me the tools to do life sober. When my time was up, I didn’t want to go home. It’s a beautiful, sacred place in a remote area of Orange County. You’re surrounded by trees and mountains. The landscaping is gorgeous. They even have a pool you can swim in during the summer. The food is great. I cannot say enough about the staff. They provide the support and care women need to get sober and stay sober. If you’re suffering from substance use disorder, Vera’s Sanctuary is the place for you. Don’t think twice! If you need rehab, and Vera’s has a bed,...read full review

This program saved my life. Not once but twice. Sometimes I cannot find the words to express what this program has done for myself and so many others. This is a medi-cal facility for women and it's a beautiful place to recover. It feels like a family. There will always be a special place in my heart for TTP. The detox is wonderful given that it's the hardest part to start your journey in recovery -- there could be some changes to make it even better but it will do with what they have. I think the biggest complaint I had and others had was the food and snack situation. Unsure if it's changed since I've been there but it should improve considering the fact. Not every program is perfect. The dorms were comfortable and felt like home. It can get crazy but they have great staff that gives the women the support and care they need. They will work with you to help and accommodate your journey. Great therapist, counselors and directors!! This program is a 6 months program typically but if you need it to be shorter they can work with you. But they will always suggest 6 months and I understand why. They find aftercare for you. They help with schooling and career building if you need or want it! They also help with mothers getting their children back. They are a DCFS approved facility/ provider--- I've seen sooo many women get their children back through this program. Many stay sober through this program. I've made great friendships for life from this program. They accomplish what they set out to do for women in Southern California. They help those who need and want help. They go above and beyond to make you feel at home and help you do the work on yourself. I recommend this program to anyone who wants to get serious and cannot stay clean and sober. It is a strict program but there's a reason for all of it. TTP!

I have two years clean and sober! This place saved my life! The staff are wonderful, I was safe I was cared for and I always tell any young woman in need this could be the place for them! They need to have an open mind. I have friendships today with other girls I met with in the program and there is a handful of us who have gotten our life together, it was this place that brought us together to stick together !! Please if you need a safe place to get off the street and get clean and start working your program The Teen Project is for you!
