About Ohlhoff Recovery Programs Skip Byron Primary

Ohlhoff Recovery Programs in San Francisco, CA offers a continuum of addiction treatment built for longer-term recovery — from non-medical detox and inpatient care through long-term residential programs and continuing care. Serving adults, adolescents, men, women, and families, Ohlhoff is licensed and certified by the California Department of Health Care Services and accepts most major private insurance plans.

Ohlhoff Recovery Programs, located at 927 Irving St in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, is a state-licensed addiction treatment center that provides a structured continuum of care for individuals and families navigating substance use disorder, alcohol addiction, and drug addiction. Rather than functioning as a single-point intervention, Ohlhoff is designed around the full arc of recovery — from initial stabilization through long-term residential treatment and ongoing continuing care. The center serves San Francisco, CA and accepts private insurance as well as private pay.

Ohlhoff's levels of care span non-medical detox, inpatient treatment, long-term residential programming, intensive outpatient, standard outpatient, and continuing care. The inpatient program runs up to 30 days, giving residents time to stabilize and build a foundation before transitioning to the next phase. For those who need deeper immersion, long-term residential options are available at three- or six-month lengths — a format that is increasingly recognized as essential for durable recovery outcomes. The intensive outpatient and outpatient tracks allow individuals to step down gradually while maintaining their connection to professional support.

Continuing care is a formal part of what Ohlhoff offers, not an afterthought. This commitment to aftercare reflects an understanding that recovery extends well beyond an initial treatment episode. Ohlhoff is licensed and certified by the State of California, Department of Health Care Services — a baseline credential that speaks to the program's accountability to state standards for addiction treatment.

Ohlhoff serves a broad population: adults, adolescents, men, women, and families — making it one of the few San Francisco recovery centers equipped to work with multiple family members across different program tracks. Payment options include most major private insurance plans and private pay; the center does not accept Medi-Cal or Medicare. For families or individuals evaluating a long-term recovery partner rather than a short-term fix, Ohlhoff's range of residential treatment durations and its built-in continuing care structure set it apart from higher-volume, shorter-stay programs in the Bay Area.

A Full Continuum of Care for Long-Term Recovery in San Francisco

Ohlhoff Recovery Programs is structured around the reality that recovery rarely happens in a single 30-day window. From non-medical detox and inpatient treatment to long-term residential programs lasting three or six months, the center offers a progression of care that meets individuals where they are and supports them as their needs change over time. This kind of continuum — where a person can move from inpatient to intensive outpatient to continuing care within the same organization — reduces the disruptions that often derail recovery between program transitions.

Located on Irving Street in San Francisco's Inner Sunset, Ohlhoff is accessible to residents across the city and surrounding Bay Area. The center's inpatient program provides up to 30 days of structured residential treatment, while the longer residential tracks offer three or six months of immersive care for those whose recovery requires more sustained support. For individuals managing work, family, or other obligations, the intensive outpatient and standard outpatient programs provide flexible options that keep people connected to treatment without requiring a residential stay.

Aftercare and Continuing Care: Recovery Doesn't Stop at Discharge

One of the most consistent predictors of long-term recovery success is what happens after the initial treatment episode ends. Ohlhoff addresses this directly by offering continuing care as a formal level of service — not simply a list of outside referrals handed to someone at discharge. This means that individuals completing an inpatient or residential program at Ohlhoff have a structured pathway into ongoing support rather than facing an abrupt transition back to daily life.

For family members wondering where a loved one goes after rehab, or for individuals planning their own aftercare, Ohlhoff's continuing care model provides a defined answer: a sustained connection to professional addiction treatment support. Combined with the center's outpatient program options, this makes Ohlhoff a reasonable long-term recovery partner for people who need more than a short-term stabilization.

Who Ohlhoff Serves: Adults, Adolescents, and Families

Ohlhoff Recovery Programs serves a notably broad population for a single San Francisco addiction treatment center. Adults and adolescents are both served, as are men and women — and critically, families are included as a population the center is equipped to work with. For households where more than one person is affected by substance use disorder, this matters: it means the center has programs and structures designed with family dynamics in mind, not just individual treatment episodes.

The center's admissions office is open Monday through Thursday from 10 AM to 6 PM and Friday from 10 AM to 5 PM. Ohlhoff accepts most major private insurance plans and private pay, but does not accept Medi-Cal or Medicare.
