JOB SUMMARY
HealthRIGHT 360, a nonprofit organization and a family of programs, is committed to providing accessible

barriers to healthcare and promote health equity for all. We offer a wide range of services, including
mental health care, residential and outpatient substance use treatment, and primary health services.
Additionally, we provide transitional support for individuals re-entering the community after involvement
in the criminal justice system. By integrating physical and behavioral health, we empower individuals to
overcome challenges by addressing social determinants of health, fostering resilience, and facilitating
recovery.

North County Serenity House (NCSH), a residential program of HealthRIGHT 360, was founded in 1966 to
provide substance use disorder services in the community. NCSH provides a gender-responsive and

the role that trauma frequently plays in substance use and criminal histories of women. For clients with
co-occurring mental illness, we provide integrated substance use and mental health services which treat
both conditions as primary. Our residential facility serves up to 120 women (with capacity for up to 20
children under 5 years of age) seeking recovery from substance use disorders.
