The Betty Ford Center opened on October 4, 1982. In 2015, the Betty Ford Center opened an outpatient addiction treatment clinic in West Los Angeles. ==History== The Center was co-founded by former U.S. First Lady Betty Ford, Leonard Firestone and Dr. James West in 1982. West also served as the Betty Ford Center's first medical director from 1982 until 1989.〔 He left that position to become the Betty Ford Center's director of outpatient services.〔 Betty Ford's decision to undertake such a project followed on the heels of her own battle with alcohol dependence and diazepam addiction and release from the Long Beach Naval Hospital. Betty Ford Center merged with Hazelden Foundation on February 10, 2014, to create the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Betty Ford Center」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
