Licensing - Sovereign Health Dual Diagnosis Center

At Sovereign Health of California, we take great pride in our high standard of care and professional conduct at our dual diagnosis centers. We’d like to share with you our credentials, which prove our exceptional commitment and dedication to our clients.

We are certified by the State of California Drug and Alcohol Programs (ADP) to operate and maintain a day treatment and/or other drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities. In Addition we are licensed by ADP for detoxification and residential treatment. See our License here.

We also earned and maintain an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, the best rating a company can earn. Sovereign Health of California has had this rating since March of 2005.

Our dual diagnosis center has received the Gold Seal of Approval from the Joint Commission, the standards of which are much more rigorous than those required by the ADP.
