The facility’s mental health program is the first-ever in California designed with consumers' input. As a provider of this model program, the Crestwood Healing Center is a positive example of compassionate and innovative mental health care in California, and nationwide.

Also, Pleasant Hill supports the Dreamcatchers program, which empowers individuals to successfully transition back into the community and local workforce.
