Phoenix, AZ — Valle del Sol announced today that it has earned accreditation from The Joint Commission under its Behavioral Health Care and Human Services standards, recognizing the organization’s Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) and continued leadership in addressing Arizona’s opioid crisis through integrated, evidence-based care.
The accreditation highlights Valle del Sol’s commitment to providing high-quality treatment and recovery services for individuals living with opioid use disorder. Through its OTP, Valle del Sol offers medication-assisted treatment, counseling, behavioral health support, and coordinated care designed to help patients achieve long-term recovery and stability.
As communities across Arizona continue to face the devastating impacts of opioid addiction, Valle del Sol’s OTP serves as a critical access point for comprehensive care -- helping patients not only begin treatment, but remain connected to the medical, behavioral health, and support services needed for sustained recovery.
A key component of Valle del Sol’s integrated approach is its on-site pharmacy, which allows patients to fill prescriptions directly through Valle del Sol as part of their care experience. By coordinating closely with providers and behavioral health teams, the pharmacy helps reduce barriers to treatment, improve continuity of care, and support better patient outcomes.
“This accreditation reflects the extraordinary work of our OTP team and the life-changing care they provide every day,” said Mike Renaud, President and CEO of Valle del Sol. “The opioid crisis continues to impact families and communities across Arizona, and we are committed to ensuring people have access to compassionate, evidence-based treatment that supports long-term recovery.”
The Joint Commission is the nation’s leading independent accrediting body for health care organizations, setting rigorous standards for quality, safety, and performance improvement across behavioral health and human services programs.
This recognition builds on Valle del Sol’s recent Joint Commission accreditations in primary care and behavioral health, underscoring the organization’s continued growth and commitment to excellence across its integrated model of care.
