The ASC Treatment Group Adult Community Services Center located in North Hollywood, California (Noho) is a Medi-Cal-certified outpatient center that provides services for clients referred by the Los Angeles and Ventura County Departments of Mental Health. The outpatient treatment center is open Monday through Friday and is a part of our community-based wraparound services efforts. The clients who attend this program must be referred by their county’s mental health department. The clients reside in one of our three distinct environments which includes contracted board and care homes in both Tujunga and North Hollywood.

This ASC service center is a private, standalone, creative space which resembles an art or recording studio, more than an outpatient clinic and serves as a model for innovative community-based wraparound services within an urban environment.

At the ASC-NoHo Service Center, clients can engage in a host of therapeutic opportunities. This creative space provides our clients with an opportunity to participate in dynamic and meaningful group therapeutic sessions, meet individually with their psychiatrist, and engage in individual therapy, nursing services, art and music therapy, case management, family therapy, substance-abuse related services. Participation in activities such as art, recreation, music and virtual therapeutic training is also available and encouraged. While at the center, clients can involve themselves in our “Internet café”, pursuing personal projects, keeping in touch with friends and family, participating in cutting edge computer driven treatment modules, or simply surfing the Internet.

Our programs are comprised of:

• Available individual psychotherapy on a daily basis.
• Robust therapeutic group activities
• A certified Medi-Cal outpatient program, whose staff include a Certified Substance Counselor, social workers, and an activities director.
• A work program opportunity for all clients that includes work around the facilities, the grounds and in the community.
• Comprehensive pharmacotherapy services as provided by a board-certified psychiatrist and a psychiatric nurse.

Programs, curricula and training opportunities for Clients and Staff are available under the direction of our Licensed Clinical Directors, our Psychiatrist, and in compliance with all regulations of the California Department of Social Services
