Janus of Santa Cruz was founded in 1976 by physician Dr. Robert G. O'Brient, who introduced a highly effective approach for treating alcoholism in a social model setting. Today, that first modest facility has grown into one of the most respected, full-service substance use disorder (SUD) treatment centers in central California, serving over 2,500 clients and their families each year. We offer a full scope of programs, including detoxification, residential treatment, perinatal treatment, medication assisted opioid treatment, outpatient programs, drinking driver programs, counseling services, and sober housing. For more than 40 years, Janus has remained dedicated to its mission: to provide supportive, hope-inspiring and successful SUD  treatment services in a professional and compassionate environment while assisting individuals and families on their journey toward wellness and recovery.
