The County of Orange is now managing operations at the Be Well campus in Orange

(Santa Ana, CA) –The OC Health Care Agency (HCA) has officially assumed management along with operations of the Be Well Orange Campus, located at 265 South Anita Drive, Orange, CA 92868. As of October 1, 2024, the County of Orange (County) began overseeing the delivery of vital mental health and substance use disorder (SUD) services at the campus, ensuring continued support for the wellbeing of Orange County (OC) residents.

The Be Well Orange Campus provides essential services designed to address behavioral health crises and substance use disorders. With this transition, the County will uphold its commitment to providing high-quality care, maintaining existing programs, while seeking to enhance the services offered. The following services will continue to be offered:

Available 24/7, 365 days a year, the CSU serves individuals 13 years and older, offering services such as psychiatric evaluation, individual and group therapy, family education, and peer mentorship. For access, residents can call (714) 410-3500.
  • The Crisis Residential Program (CRP), also provided by Exodus, offers short-term, voluntary services for adults in need of additional support to avoid hospitalization, stabilize symptoms, and return to their previous level of functioning. The program specializes in providing care for individuals with co-occurring behavioral health and substance use issues, ensuring culturally sensitive, peer-supported care in a homelike environment.
  • Substance Use Disorder (SUD) residential treatment services, managed by HealthRIGHT 360, will continue uninterrupted at the campus. This program includes treatment for 30 adults, with designated beds for both men and women, offering comprehensive care including treatment planning, counseling, medication services, and care coordination.
