About
Adeona Healthcare was an adolescent treatment program associated with Sovereign Health of California's Rancho San Diego operations. Public treatment listings described the campus as serving teens ages 12 to 17 with addiction, mental-health, behavioral, and co-occurring disorders.
Sovereign Health operated adolescent services in the East County area of San Diego. A 2016 East County Californian report described Sovereign Health of San Diego as an adolescent treatment facility that had opened its doors for public tours. Recovery.com later listed Adeona Healthcare as closed and described it as a mountain-view campus for teen treatment (Recovery.com Adeona listing, East County Californian).
Sovereign Health's Southern California operations drew regulatory, law-enforcement, and labor scrutiny in the late 2010s. NBC San Diego reported in 2016 on repeated teen runaways from the Rancho San Diego facility, and KGTV reported in 2019 that state labor officials ordered the East County treatment center to pay back wages (NBC San Diego, KGTV).
