Social Rehabilitation

One of the foundational principles of PRC Baker Places is the creation of a homelike environment in which treatment is provided and healing can occur.

Many of our clients have lived in challenging settings located in neighborhoods that are impediments to healthy lifestyles and where safety is an issue. In contrast, the small milieu setting at PRC Baker Places helps to facilitate a “real world” experience, enabling clients to feel safe and at home. PRC Baker Place residents are actively involved in highly-structured programs that emphasize the development of group living skills.

As a continuum of care, the agency is uniquely positioned to move clients from one program to another.  These same clients are often rejected from other treatment programs unable or unwilling to deal with these complexities. At PRC Baker Places, we welcome them.

Acute Services

Serving individuals in urgent need of detoxification or in acute distress from a combination of psychiatric and addiction issues.

Grove Street House
This program serves individuals in acute distress resulting from a combination of psychiatric and addiction issues. Clients may stay up to 60 days, with the possibility of extending their time for continuing treatment reasons. While the stay is brief, the treatment model is informed by a social rehabilitation approach, emphasizing individualized treatment planning and group participation in a milieu setting.

    Supportive Housing

    Real and sustained treatment success is critically linked to ongoing support following residential treatment services. PRC Baker Places achieves this through two types of supportive housing.

    Co-Op Transitional Living
    The Assisted Independent Living Program (AILP) was established to meet this need for clients desiring continued assistance to manage and structure their lives. Clients form relationships with other clients, and PRC Baker Places provides a flat or apartment where they can live together while receiving case management services from the staff. Today, there are between 80 to 100 individuals residing in apartments across the city. The Baker Supported Housing Program (BSLP) is a similar temporary subsidy and case management program for people with substance use and HIV/AIDS. Through BSLP, approximately 60 clients live in scattered site housing across the city.

    Permanent Supportive Housing

    The Odyssey House Program
    PRC Baker Places created the Odyssey House Program with HUD funding in 1991. This large, fully-restored Victorian provides permanent housing for African American adults who were formerly institutionalized for extensive periods of time, or who lived on the street for many years. The Odyssey House maintains an active program for clients to develop independent living skills. The Odyssey House is licensed as an Adult Residential Facility and has 24-hour staffing. It is the only such program in the city of San Francisco.
