Odyssey House began in 1971 with a single residential treatment program in Salt Lake City. Since then, we've grown into Utah’s largest and most comprehensive addiction treatment provider. Today, we operate multiple residential and outpatient facilities throughout Salt Lake County, along with mental health programs, transitional housing, and assertive community treatment services.
Every decision at Odyssey House is guided by what’s best for those we serve. Our evidence-based programs treat the whole person — addressing mental, physical, emotional, and social needs — to help individuals overcome the many barriers to recovery. This holistic approach leads to lasting, life-changing outcomes.
At Odyssey House, we’re proud to report that in FY2024, 66% of individuals in our Substance Use Treatment programs successfully completed treatment. While our ultimate goal is 100%, this number reflects the dedication of our staff and the resilience of the individuals we serve — and it significantly exceeds both state and county averages!
For context, the statewide completion rate in Utah was 43% in FY2024, and Salt Lake County saw a rate of 44% during the same period (source: Utah Deparment of Health & Human Services).
Figures are drawn from rigorous data reporting requirements that ensure consistency across all publicly funded treatment providers in Utah. Every program is required to submit detailed admission and discharge information through a secure platform known as SAMHIS (Substance Abuse Mental Health Information System). This data is collected monthly and reviewed by the Division of Substance Use and Mental Health (DSUMH) to support accurate statewide reporting and fulfill federal reporting requirements.
Over the past decade, we've been honored with 92 Best of State® Awards — recognition that reflects our entire team's dedication, compassion, and hard work. We're grateful for the acknowledgment and remain committed to serving our community with excellence!
Creating a supportive, mission-driven workplace is at the heart of what we do and has been recognized time and again. Odyssey House is a 6x winner of the Top Workplace award from The Salt Lake Tribune! We're proud to be a place where people feel valued, empowered, and inspired to make a difference.
We're honored to have been recognized by City Weekly readers as "Best Addiction Recovery" and our Martindale Clinic as "Best Family Practice Clinic" in 2025 — with additional honors in 2019, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024. A huge thank you to our community for the continued support and trust in the work we do!
Odyssey House has maintained Joint Commission accreditation since 2011. The Joint Commission standards improve patient safety, quality of care, health outcomes, and meet or surpass law and regulation. By maintaining this accredidation, Odyssey's services rank in the top 8% of behavioral health providers in the nation.
