About Fellowship Center ASPI

The Fellowship Center in Escondido, California supports men ages 18 and older in overcoming alcohol and drug addiction. The center provides residential and outpatient programs, typically ranging from 30 to 120 days. As a men-only treatment option, it has been helping people recover since 1963, offering a stable, structured setting where residents can work on rebuilding their lives and repairing relationships.

Treatment is based on a holistic, strength-focused model that draws from the 12-Step framework. Participants receive a personalized treatment plan that may include group sessions and individual counseling, relapse prevention strategies, psychoeducation, and motivational groups. Support for family involvement, SMART goal planning, and attention to spiritual development are also emphasized, addressing recovery on multiple levels—mental, physical, and spiritual.

Men live in shared residences designed to remain clean and sober, while staff coordinate daily meals, exercise, and organized activities. The Fellowship Center also schedules family visits and helps residents prepare for medical and legal appointments, as well as work on job readiness skills. For those needing extended support, sober living homes are available. Overall, the program focuses on helping each man grow, strengthen connections, and move toward a healthier, hopeful future.
