Muir Wood offers two dual-diagnosis (substance use and mental health) treatment programs for girls 12-17 in Riverside, California, each accommodating just six girls (assigned female at birth). The two Riverside programs, Da Vinci and Edgewild, mirror Muir Wood’s Sonoma County, California, dual-diagnosis programs that have proven to be successful for more than a decade. Riverside was chosen for this expansion of services because of its shortage of high-quality residential treatment programs for teens. To fill this gap in teen treatment services in Riverside, Muir Wood provides a top-tier, Joint Commision-accredited, residential teen treatment for teens and support for their families experiencing crisis at home.
