WHAT WE DO:
Desiree entered Northern California Treatment Services in April, 2010. Now 20 years old, she has had a Methamphetamines addiction since the age of twelve. Funding for Desiree’s care through All American Indian Reservations was limited to 60 days, however due to a court order, she had to complete a 180 day program with NCTS. When she completed her first 60 days, she was placed on a Work Training Program (WTP) that NCTS set up to help individuals with limited and/or no funding. While on the WTP she worked as a receptionist at the main office. Desiree was able to complete her program at Northern California Treatment Services and graduated the IOP/SLE in October, 2010. From her work training assignment, she has gained work ethics and experience that has built her self-esteem that will allow her to become a productive member of our community. John is 33 years old and has had a long history of drug addiction that kept him incarcerated since he was a juvenile. He entered into the Northern California Treatment Services (NCTS) IOP/SLE Program in August, 2009. John had no funding at the time and was accepted into NCTS but was placed into the Work Training Program (WTP) to fund him for his treatment program. During that time, John worked alongside NCTS head maintenance supervisor, Ray, where he gained a lot of experience and knowledge that has allowed him to become employable once he completed the program. He gained so much knowledge in the field that he is still employed with Oroville Economic and Community Development Corporation, which is the parent company of NCTS. John continues to do well in his life today where he remains free from his addiction and has begun his new life as a productive member of society. Marty came to Northern California Treatment Services (NCTS) in September of this year. He is 22 with an addiction to Methamphetamines and Alcohol for the past five years. As with many young adults with criminal history and the disease of addiction, he has no job experience and was not a good candidate for employment. NCTS has put Marty in our Work Training Program where we teach a skill that he can use in today’s work force. This allows him to build self-esteem, pride within himself, and also allows him to pay for his treatment at NCTS. Today Marty has just finished helping remodel a five bedroom house and did a great job. Today Marty is clean and sober, working his way to a lifetime of sobriety which will allow him to become a productive member of society.

Our History The evolution of today’s Northern California Treatment Services began in 2008 when Mr. Michael Anderson, now Executive Director of NCTS, introduced Eric J. Almquist to Travis Philmlee. Mr. Almquist came from a real estate background and had several properties in Oroville owned by the Oroville Economic & Community Development Corporation (OECDC), a 501©3 non-profit corporation. He was interested in converting the use of these properties from rentals to programs which might help people and the community. Mr. Philmlee operated Northern California Treatment Services, Inc., in
Our first facility is the Myers house in South Oroville. This facility provides clean and sober living for substance abusers, parolees from the criminal justice system and Veterans with substance abuse dependence. It is a two-bedroom home in front and the adjacent three-bedroom home which is capable of providing housing for 11 persons. We, then, changed the Idora house to a Sober Living Environment. The house located at 2259-A |
