Roots Through Recovery was founded in 2013, and has been proudly serving the Long Beach community since 2016. Our outpatient center grew out of an increasing need for the services we offer, in a surprisingly underserved area. We began with treating clients with substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders, and as the need developed, we added a primary mental health program in 2018, and a comprehensive chronic and persistent pain program for patients suffering these issues in 2019.

Though we have grown in size and services offered, our mission to be the best treatment option for the Long Beach community and provide a path toward a better life for our patients has remained the same.
