Teen Challenge San Diego is a faith-based inpatient program for men, established before 1990. It is one of a small number of programs in the area that treat hallucinogen use, and one of just two locally that use a faith-based approach across any tradition.

The program also addresses gambling addiction, a condition treated by relatively few nearby facilities. It is offered at no cost or through state funding, and financing or payment plans are available for those who need them, making it accessible to men seeking a structured, faith-oriented recovery setting.
