About Riverside University - Blaine Street Clinic

Across the Inland Empire, Riverside University Health System (RUHS) operates as a general health care provider offering services for mental health conditions through both residential and outpatient programs. The organization is accredited by the Joint Commission and CARF.

RUHS’ Blaine Street site is known under several names, including Blaine Street Clinic, Blaine Street Adult Clinic, Riverside New Life Clinic, and Lehman Center.

The center serves transitional age youth (16–25), adults in midlife, and older adults aged 60 and over, with interventions designed for each group. When needed, RUHS can also meet clients in their homes, particularly for older individuals. In addition, it provides dedicated support for pregnant and parenting women and for people involved with the criminal justice system.

RUHS works to remove barriers to care by offering translation across all programs, including American Sign Language (ASL). Children up to age 5 are welcome to attend treatment with their parents or guardians. All RUHS locations, including the Hemet Family Care Center, are wheelchair accessible.

Following a “whatever-it-takes” approach, RUHS delivers individualized assistance that may include therapy, help with housing, and training in everyday living skills to promote stability and sustained recovery. Treatment may involve medication support, multidimensional family therapy (MDFT), and coordination with primary care physicians to match the plan to each client’s needs.

Clients can review their care documentation during treatment and after discharge through the MyChart app.
