Question by jakey: Does anybody know about the famous drug rehabilitation center in Newport Beach, California?
My sister Winnie asked me to enter this question because we’re looking for a drug rehabilitation center that she can enter because after months of intermittent fights, she finally gave in to the thought of being admitted to a rehab.
