FOUNTAIN VALLEY, CA – September 24, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –

California Prime Recovery is marking its 10-year anniversary in 2026, recognizing a decade of providing mental health and substance use treatment to individuals and families in California. Founded in Fountain Valley in 2016, the family-owned and operated behavioral healthcare provider has expanded its programs over the past decade while maintaining a focus on evidence-based, trauma-informed and individualized care.

California Prime Recovery was established with the goal of creating a setting where people seeking treatment could receive structured support in an environment centered on safety and respect. Since then, the organization has developed a continuum of outpatient services that includes partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient and standard outpatient programs, along with virtual treatment, supportive housing and alumni support.

“Reaching 10 years gives us an opportunity to reflect on why California Prime Recovery was created in the first place,” said Karynne Witkin, CEO and Co-Owner of California Prime Recovery. “People often come to us during extremely vulnerable periods in their lives, and our responsibility is to provide an environment where they feel safe, respected and able to participate in their own care. We are grateful to the clients and families who have placed that trust in us over the past decade.”

The organization provides care for both mental health and substance use disorders, with programming designed around the circumstances and needs of each individual rather than a single standardized path. California Prime Recovery describes its approach as evidence-based and trauma-informed, with treatment planning intended to account for clinical needs as well as the broader factors that may influence recovery and long-term well-being.

Over the course of its first decade, the organization has also become a Joint Commission-accredited behavioral healthcare provider. Accreditation reflects compliance with established healthcare quality and safety standards, although treatment needs and outcomes remain individual to each person receiving care.

Witkin said the organization views growth as a means of improving care and increasing access rather than as an objective on its own. “For us, growth has never simply meant becoming larger,” she said. “It has meant asking how we can strengthen clinical care, reach people who need appropriate support and invest in the people providing that care. This milestone belongs to our employees, our community partners, and especially the clients and families who have been part of California Prime Recovery over the years.”

California Prime Recovery identifies Compassion, Purpose, Innovation and Excellence as the values guiding its work. Those principles have shaped how the organization has expanded its services, including the addition of virtual treatment options and continuing support intended to help people maintain connections after more intensive stages of care have ended.

The anniversary also provides an opportunity for the organization to look ahead. California Prime Recovery says its priorities for the next decade include maintaining clinical quality, developing specialized and accessible programs, investing in its workforce and strengthening partnerships related to prevention, early intervention, treatment and long-term well-being. The organization plans to recognize clients, alumni, employees and community partners through anniversary activities during 2026 and 2027.

For families navigating mental health or substance use concerns, the range of available services can sometimes be difficult to understand. California Prime Recovery says part of its role is helping individuals identify an appropriate level of care and understand how different forms of outpatient treatment may fit into a broader treatment plan.

The 10-year milestone reflects the organization’s development from its founding in Fountain Valley into a provider offering several levels of outpatient and continuing support. California Prime Recovery says the anniversary will remain focused on the people who have participated in its programs and the staff and community partners involved in providing care.
