What the SAMHSA Record Shows About Teen Challenge San Diego
Teen Challenge San Diego is a substance use treatment operated by Private non-profit organization in San Diego, California. The facility's N-SUMHSS record lists 2 primary care modalities (residential, outpatient), which shapes both how treatment is delivered and how intake is scheduled.

The full postal address on file is 5450 Lea Street, San Diego, CA 92105.
On the services side, the facility self-reports 4 distinct service lines (Hospital inpatient, Outpatient, Residential, Substance use treatment), 3 substance or condition categories treated (Alcohol, General substance use disorders, Opioids), and 4 clinical treatment approaches (Anger management, Brief intervention, Relapse prevention, Substance use disorder counseling). It serves 9 specific population groups (Adults, Justice-involved individuals, Men, Persons who have experienced trauma, Persons with DUI/DWI, Persons with HIV/AIDS, Persons with co-occurring pain, Veterans, and 1 more) with 1 language of care (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 payment assistance, plus 1 specific payment method enumerated in the survey (No payment accepted).
Teen Challenge San Diego's SAMHSA record documents fewer attributes (23) than the typical California facility (state median: 32, out of 1,580 listed statewide).
