On September 12, Ford Street Project and Northern Circle Indian Housing Authority co-hosted a ribbon–cutting ceremony at the Ukiah Recovery Center (URC), celebrating the opening of a new 3,350-square-foot treatment pavilion and 24-bed sober living facility. These facilities represent a 20 percent expansion in URC’s capacity to serve those ready for recovery.
URC is one of several services provided locally by Ford Street Project. Thanks to grant funding, Ford Street Project and Northern Circle Indian Housing Authority were able to support URC’s increase in licensed treatment beds from 40 to 65, with 12 beds dedicated to withdrawal management. The addition of the sober living dorm provides safety and security for clients who enter the residential treatment program unhoused, an urgent need in our community.
Ford Street Project Executive Director Jacque Williams said, “It’s not just about getting people in the door—it’s about giving them the time they need to heal and create the healthy patterns that support long-term success. This expansion allows people to stay for at least six months instead of only three, vastly increasing their chances of establishing the foundations of stability and self-reliance—of finding reliable housing, learning new skills, and securing employment.”
Ford Street Project received $3,042,000 from the Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program (BHCIP) grant by the Department of Health Care Services to improve the site and build a 3,350-square-foot treatment pavilion. Northern Circle Indian Housing Authority received $5,000,000 from the Behavioral Health Bridge Housing (BHBH) grant by the Department of Health Care Services and dedicated $2,600,000 to build the 3,663-square-foot sober living dorm.
Williams said, “We’re deeply grateful to the Northern Circle Indian Housing Authority, whose collaboration helped make this vision a reality. In communities like ours, these partnerships aren’t just helpful—they’re essential.”
