Learn more about the fascinating history and pioneering work of Hazelden and the Betty Ford Center.
Hazelden was established in 1949, with a forward-thinking approach to the problem of alcoholism—an approach built on emerging Twelve Step principles and practices, lay counseling and abiding compassion for the individual receiving care. The Betty Ford Center was established in 1982, with Betty Ford—"the First Lady of Recovery"—bringing unprecedented visibility to the problem of drug addiction and the promise of treatment and recovery.
Today, with headquarters on the lakeside campus in Center City where it all began in 1949, the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation serves patients across the country with locations in California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Minnesota, New York, Oregon and Washington. You can easily find a treatment center location near you. In addition, most of our services can be accessed virtually.
