About Lakewood Center
Lakewood Center is part of the La Amistad Foundation, an organization founded in 1970 as a halfway house, providing a broad spectrum of services for adolescents with severe mental illness.

Lakewood Center continues to provide a supportive, therapeutic community for adults in need of long-term mental health care.
