Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Bakersfield Recovery Services, doing business as Jason's Retreat, Capistrano Community for Women, Lincoln Street Retreat, offers safe and nurturing environments in which men and women can begin the process of recovery from addiction to alcohol and/or drugs. While providing an atmosphere of caring, with life’s basic necessities provided, we hope to give clients an opportunity to change long-entrenched attitudes and belief systems, and rebuild lives damaged by addiction. Our programs offer 12-Step based Social Model treatment that emphasizes individual responsibility and accountability. We believe that homelessness and criminal behavior flow directly from addiction, and therefore hope to improve our community by assisting our clients to become productive, useful citizens.

Jason's Retreat
Jason’s Retreat is a dedicated men’s recovery facility, located in a historic two-story building. It offers a welcoming environment with a spacious dining area and community kitchen. Not only do residents have access to sober living accommodations, but they also benefit from nearby counseling offices. Our team is committed to ensuring that every individual receives comprehensive support.
Capistrano Community for Women
The Capistrano Community for Women offers a serene residential setting in a spacious house featuring amenities such as a large fenced play area for children, a fully-equipped kitchen, laundry room, patio, fireplace, and central air conditioning. The establishment emphasizes on creating a familial environment where residents are actively involved in tasks like menu planning, food buying, and household duties. The dedicated staff ensures supportive services like transportation for professional appointments, education, and visits with residents' children.
Lincoln Street Peri-Natal Facility
At Lincoln Street Retreat, mothers with newborn infants receive a secure and nurturing environment. Here, they are given the resources and counseling services they need, allowing them to focus on their child’s well-being and their personal growth. Additionally, they have the opportunity to participate in special education classes, equipping them with essential skills to integrate productively into society.
Sober Living Environment
We provide a Sober Living Environment (SLE) dedicated to fostering essential life skills and sobriety. Our SLE is distinguished by its certification through Kern Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (KBHRS) and receives endorsement by both probation and state parole. Prioritizing discipline, relationships, and employment readiness, we provide a structured setting that emphasizes consistent recovery. We are committed to guiding clients towards long-lasting recovery success.
Multi-Service Center
The Multi-Service Center (MSC) is a comprehensive facility dedicated to serving the diverse needs of the Kern County community and the residents of Bakersfield Recovery Services. Along with a focus on family, financial stability, and community integration, the MSC offers parenting classes, monthly food distribution, job development learning, supervised visits for families, and referral services.
