How we put this guide together
The Ranch is a licensed residential treatment program in Yuba City. We built this list for neighbors in the Yuba-Sutter area and the Sacramento Valley who need help and don’t know where to start, so most of these resources aren’t connected to us. Details come from Sutter County and local health plan resources; hours change, so call ahead.
