WHAT MAKES THEIR COMPANY UNIQUE

Walden House began in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district in 1969.  We now have 4 full Residential facilities in San Francisco, 3 in Los Angeles and 5 In-custody programs in the Central Valley and Southern California.  We also have Sober Living and Outpatient programs in San Francisco and Los Angeles.  Walden House is unique because we treat addiction as a symptom, not the cause.  We run a Therapeutic Community where we have peers and mentors as well as staff running and working the program together.

NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES

550 – 600 Employees

INTERNSHIPS
