Garden Grove, California — Orange County
Drug & Alcohol Rehab in Garden Grove
Northbound's Garden Grove campus — known as The Grove— is our flagship residential and detox facility. Located in the heart of Orange County, it's where thousands of lives have been rebuilt since 1988.
Our Flagship Location
Welcome to The Grove
When we founded our Garden Grove facility, we wanted to pay homage to the history of sprawling orange groves that once populated this city. The name The Grove was established as a symbol of hope — a place where we plant the seeds of recovery.
Garden Grove sits in Orange County, just one mile from the famed Disneyland Resort and 20 minutes from some of California's most iconic beaches. The city's vibrant diversity and deep community spirit make it an ideal backdrop for healing — connected enough to feel alive, peaceful enough to focus on what matters.
As a two-phased residential treatment center, The Grove offers medically supervised detox followed by full residential care — all under one roof, staffed 24 hours a day.
