ABOUT MARY LIND RECOVERY CENTERS – RENA B RECOVERY CENTER
Since 1949, Mary Lind Recovery Centers has been a leading provider of residential substance abuse treatment for men and women. Rena B Recovery Center, which was located in Los Angeles, California, was one of our locations. However, it has since become a part of Social Model Recovery Systems. Our co-ed six-month residential program serves individuals from some of Los Angeles’s most impoverished areas. Please note that medical detoxification services are not available on-site.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
Our organization is dedicated to providing affordable access to addiction recovery, adult education, and job training for men and women. We utilize a social model philosophy within our community-based program. When clients enter our treatment program, they are assigned a case manager who designs an individualized treatment plan tailored to their specific needs.
At Rena B Recovery Center, the initial 90 days are focused on assisting the client in achieving sobriety. This is accomplished through the implementation of the 12-Step approach, individual and group counseling, substance abuse education, anger management classes, and grief counseling. While daily twelve-step meetings are available on-site, clients are required to attend a minimum of five Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA) meetings within the community each week.
The second half of treatment is primarily dedicated to academic and vocational classes aimed at preparing our clients for employment. We offer literacy training, classes on interpersonal skills, résumé preparation, job-search strategy, and interview practice. Additionally, there are workshops available on parenting and family reunification.
Throughout the six-month treatment program, residents must engage in a minimum of six hours of recovery-related activities per day.

One staff member commented, “The days of dragging people with no money off of skid row or out of McArthur Park are over. We have VERY VERY few indigent beds and even at that it is $200.00 to come in. I’ve been there longer than a minute seen lots of changes.”
