First Steps

What the SAMHSA Record Shows About First Steps

First Steps is a substance use treatment operated by Local, county, or community government in Yuba City, California. The facility's N-SUMHSS record lists 1 primary care modality (outpatient), which shapes both how treatment is delivered and how intake is scheduled. MAT is not listed in the current record; callers seeking medication-assisted options should verify directly or check the rankings pages for nearby providers that do offer MAT. The full postal address on file is 545 Garden Highway, Suite A-2, Yuba City, CA 95991.

On the services side, the facility self-reports 7 distinct service lines (Cognitive behavioral therapy, Intensive outpatient, Mental health services, Motivational interviewing, Outpatient, Substance use treatment, Trauma-informed care), 3 substance or condition categories treated (Alcohol, General substance use disorders, Opioids), and 7 clinical treatment approaches (Anger management, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Matrix Model, Motivational interviewing, Relapse prevention, Substance use disorder counseling, Trauma-related counseling). It serves 4 specific population groups (Adults, Persons who have experienced trauma, Pregnant or postpartum individuals, Young adults) with 2 languages of care (Sign language services for the deaf and hard of hearing, Spanish). Those figures give a rough signal of programmatic breadth, a higher number of approaches and populations usually indicates more structured clinical programming rather than a single-modality operation. Payment-wise, the record confirms Medicare, a sliding-fee scale, payment assistance, plus 4 specific payment methods enumerated in the survey (Cash or self-payment, Federal, or any government funding for substance use treatment programs, Medicare, SAMHSA funding/block grants).

First Steps reports 28 attributes across services, populations, payment, and language, in line with the California statewide median of 32 (1,580 facilities listed).
