About Colton Comprehensive Treatment Center
Colton Comprehensive Treatment Center, located in Colton, California, provides outpatient treatment and medical detox for adults managing opioid use disorder, with a certified Opioid Treatment Program at its core. The center holds both CARF and NCQA accreditations and serves a wide range of populations — from veterans and young adults to pregnant women and court-ordered individuals — making it one of the more inclusive recovery centers in San Bernardino County.
Colton Comprehensive Treatment Center sits at 2275 East Cooley Drive in Colton, CA, operating as a substance use treatment facility within the CTC Programs network. Certified as an Opioid Treatment Program and accredited by both CARF and NCQA, the center focuses on outpatient opioid use disorder treatment for adults 18 and older of all genders — a distinction that sets it apart from more generalized rehab settings. For people weighing longer-term recovery options in the Inland Empire, this center represents a structured, credentialed choice backed by two nationally recognized accrediting bodies.
The center offers two primary levels of care: Medical Detox and an Outpatient Program. The medical detox component provides clinical support at the start of the recovery process, while the outpatient program allows people to engage in ongoing addiction treatment while continuing to manage daily responsibilities. This outpatient model is well-suited for individuals who are past the acute phase and are building the routines and accountability that sustain long-term sobriety.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) anchors the center's therapeutic approach, giving participants practical tools to identify and shift the thought patterns connected to substance use. The center also addresses co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis, recognizing that trauma, PTSD, and mental health conditions frequently intersect with addiction. Treatment for trauma and PTSD is explicitly integrated into the care model, which matters for populations — like veterans — whose recovery needs extend well beyond substance use alone.
Colton Comprehensive Treatment Center serves an unusually broad range of populations: adolescents, veterans, pregnant women, young adults ages 18–25, seniors, men, women, individuals with HIV/AIDS, those who are deaf or hard of hearing, and court-ordered participants. Payment options include Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, sliding scale fees, and self-pay, making access realistic across a wide range of financial situations. The center operates Monday through Friday from 5 AM to 12 PM and Saturday from 7 to 10 AM, closed Sundays.
Medical Detox and Outpatient Treatment for Opioid Use Disorder
Colton Comprehensive Treatment Center offers a clear two-stage structure for people entering recovery: medical detox to manage the physical transition off opioids, followed by an outpatient program designed to support ongoing sobriety. This continuum means individuals don't have to change facilities mid-recovery — both levels of care exist within the same certified, accredited program.
The outpatient model is particularly well-matched for people in the sustained phase of recovery who need clinical support without stepping away from work, family, or community. Operating weekday mornings and Saturday hours reflect a schedule built around the realities of daily life, not just clinical convenience.
Dual Diagnosis Care: Treating Trauma, PTSD, and Co-Occurring Disorders
Many people entering substance abuse treatment are also navigating trauma, PTSD, or other mental health conditions. Colton Comprehensive Treatment Center formally addresses co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis as part of its care model — not as an add-on, but as a recognized dimension of recovery. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) provides participants with structured, skills-based tools to work through the connections between mental health and substance use.
This integrated approach is especially meaningful for veterans, who are among the populations the center explicitly serves. Treating the full picture — not just the substance use — reflects how recovery actually works for people whose histories include trauma or chronic mental health challenges.
Who Colton CTC Serves: A Broad Recovery Community
Few outpatient recovery centers serve as wide a range of people as Colton Comprehensive Treatment Center. The facility works with adolescents, young adults (18–25), seniors, men, women, pregnant women, veterans, individuals with HIV/AIDS, those who are deaf or hard of hearing, and court-ordered participants. This breadth isn't incidental — it reflects a program designed to meet people where they are, across life stages and circumstances.
Language access extends that reach further. Services are available in 16 languages including Spanish, Vietnamese, Arabic, Mandarin, Tagalog, Russian, Korean, Farsi, and others, reducing one of the most persistent barriers to addiction treatment in diverse communities like San Bernardino County.
Payment Options and Access at Colton Comprehensive Treatment Center
Cost and insurance coverage are among the most common reasons people delay or avoid seeking addiction treatment. Colton Comprehensive Treatment Center accepts Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, sliding scale fees, and self-pay — a range that covers a substantial portion of the population in Colton and the surrounding region. The inclusion of TRICARE is specifically relevant for military families and veterans pursuing an outpatient or detox program.
Accreditation by both CARF and NCQA signals that the center meets externally verified standards for program quality — an important consideration for individuals and families who are evaluating long-term recovery partners, not just immediate crisis care.
