A Therapeutic Alternative

A Therapeutic Alternative is at 3015 H Street, at 30th and H where Midtown meets East Sacramento, in what the shop calls the medical district, within a block of Business 80. Its directions say to take exit 7B from Business 80 eastbound and turn right onto H Street, with the shop on the left. The parking lot is directly behind the building, with ADA spaces, and free street parking is nearby; the shop asks customers not to use its neighbors' lots. A lift at the front porch gives step-free access.

There is no light rail stop within an easy walk: SacRT's 29th Street station on the Gold Line is about 0.8 mile south by our calculation from DCC's premises coordinates, and the Capitol is about 1.6 miles west.

The visible text on the shop's site says 8 am to 9 pm every day in three places; hidden markup on the same page says 9 am, so call first if you are arriving before 9. Delivery runs every day from 10 am to 7 pm through the online menu, and the shop also takes express orders for delivery or pickup by phone at (916) 544-3394 or by email. The page markup lists cash and credit card as payment; most licensed shops cannot take credit cards, so ask at the counter and have cash as a fallback.

Bring a government photo ID showing you are 21 or older. The license number, C10-0000019-LIC, is printed in the site header and footer. The shop describes itself as a social purpose corporation; its DCC licensee is A.T.A.C.H.S. Inc., an equity retailer, with a medicinal twin license at the same address.
