Providing Mental Health Care That Transforms Lives

Mental Health Inpatient Care
Sanctuary House provides 24-hour residential mental health care services

Originally built in 1902, Sanctuary Centers’ beautiful Victorian Sanctuary House is a twelve bed residential program created for adults with mental illness as they learn to live independently. Our residential clients often come to us after or as an alternative to hospitalization. The warmth of the home itself and the cozy size of the program provides an ideal combination of privacy, peace, and family atmosphere for our clients as they focus on strengthening their independent living skills.

WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT US

  • "I have been living in the Arlington Apartments now for 10 years. I find them to be a safe place to live and am amazed at how much the caseworkers care for their clients. They have a holistic approach to their treatment, caring for body, soul, and spirit."

    Kit M., Sanctuary Client
  • “This amazing program has really helped our son get back on his feet and begin a life he is proud to be living.”

    Lisa & Charlie, Parents of a Sanctuary Client
  • “During the most painful and dangerous turn in our son’s journey, the Sanctuary Center offered what I’ve not encountered at any other dual diagnosis facility or treatment program of its kind: decades of grounded therapeutic experience combined with the presence of genuine love that guides their professional process of supporting their clients.”

    Gavin Frye, MFT
  • "Almost 25 years ago, I was on the streets drinking and using drugs. Something told me that I could not live like this, or I would surely die. My faith stuck with me, and I found hope when I was introduced to staff at Sanctuary Centers."

NEW BUILDING PROJECT

Sanctuary Centers has been Santa Barbara’s leading mental-health nonprofit since 1976, serving adults living with mental illness and co-occurring disorders. Over the years, we identified two primary needs of adults living with mental illness: affordable and supportive housing and preventive health care.
