At Sun River Health, our teams are here to partner with you on getting the care and resources you need if you are struggling with substance use.

We want to empower and connect with you to create lasting change on your recovery journey. You are more than your addiction diagnosis and we would be thankful to partner with you.
If we don’t offer the substance use treatment you need at your nearest Sun River Health location, we can refer you to another health center where you will be able to get the care you need.
