For over 45 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.

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. In 1981, Janus became a private nonprofit organization and has continued to add, expand, and improve programs over the years. Currently, Janus offers quality programs that treat over 2,500 clients annually using the full continuum of care for substance use disorder (SUD) and co-occurring disorder treatment including detoxification, inpatient and outpatient treatment, perinatal services, DUI education, medication-assisted treatment, behavioral health services, and supervised Sober Living Environment (SLE) housing.
