Host of the self-titled Jane Velez-Mitchell on HLN, Velez-Mitchell covers topics that include how America is adapting to economic and environmental changes, mysterious phenomena and the many under-reported stories that impact viewers' lives. A veteran television news journalist, Velez-Mitchell reported for the nationally syndicated show Celebrity Justice and regularly served as guest host for HLN’s popular program Nancy Grace. Velez-Mitchell chronicles her lifelong battle with alcoholism, as well as her coming out as a lesbian and her discovery of a healthier, happier and more meaningful existence, in iWant: My Journey From Addiction and Overconsumption to a Simpler Honest Life, which was released in October 2009, and became a New York Times bestseller. Her most recent book, Addict Nation, was released in February 2011. In 2010, her HLN show garnered a Genesis Awards from the Humane Society of the United States (her third) and she's also the recipient of a Los Angeles Emmy Award and a New York Emmy Award. The KCAL-TV newscasts she co-anchored won three Southern California Golden Mike Awards and an Emmy.

Alcoholics Anonymous in Cuba is the same as everywhere else. Only with more technicolor, enthusiasm and love than I've found anywhere else.

The Rehab Review
Cliffside Malibu
 
 
 
 

The “beach-house-relaxed” Cliffside Malibu claims to provide an oasis for recovering addicts and alcoholics. And that’s just what you'll get—if you’ve got the cash.

Newport Academy
 
 
 
 
 

This SoCal rehab fosters a regimented but respectful recovery environment, where teens learn how to live sober through plenty of 12-step meetings and life-skills classes—not to mention "equine-assisted psychotherapy" and mixed martial arts.

Reflections
 
 
 
 

This exclusive Northern California rehab is all about client choice—as well as golf outings, Buddhist field trips and keeping up with the office.
