CLARE

CLARE began in 1965 when a group of sober alcoholics began bringing food, blankets, and the message of recovery to homeless alcoholics gathering on the beaches of Santa Monica.  CLARE is now a multi-site organization with several locations in Los Angeles County providing compassionate treatment and recovery services for alcoholism and substance abuse.  As the only non-medical detox facility on the Westside available to all regardless of their ability to pay, we are serving primarily the homeless and indigent.  Each year over 25,000 people turn to CLARE for help.  Over 2,600 are admitted to one of CLARE's 11 comprehensive programs; all others are counseled and/or placed at partner agencies.
