About Ohlhoff

For over 60 years, Ohlhoff has provided quality addiction programs for adults in recovery from substance abuse and chemical dependency. Ohlhoff has multiple levels of care designed to help individuals find their path to recovery. The Skip Byron Primary Program (SBPP), located within the historic Henry Ohlhoff House campus in San Francisco, provides up to 30 days of substance use treatment. Designed to provide stabilization for men and women in the early stages of recovery, the program operates 24/7 where clients live on campus for the duration of their treatment. The Henry Ohlhoff House Men’s Residential Program and the separate Women’s Recovery Program are long-term treatment programs for adults with alcohol or drug dependency. Each program provides a safe, structured environment where clients can attend evening groups while maintaining a regular work schedule. Ohlhoff outpatient programs offer multiple levels of care for adults, adolescents, and their families. The highly-structured intensive outpatient, outpatient, continuing care, and teen intervention programs provide options that allow clients to engage in treatment without interruption to work or school.
The Henry Ohlhoff campus provides gender-specific housing and comfortable accommodations. The mansion is located within walking distance to public transportation and is equipped with an industrial sized kitchen, several common areas, and multiple shared bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. The Ohlhoff Recovery Program is a great option for clients transitioning back into regular life seeking a stable, supportive environment.
