Lamar Odom has taken the reins of a New Mexico rehab facility … and he’s ready to give it some serious TLC to help those hit hard by the drug crisis.

The former athlete’s manager tells TMZ … the previous owner left the property to New Mexico Pastor Anthony Torres, with hopes of opening a treatment center. But when the pastor hit a roadblock with funding, he turned to Lamar, knowing he’d been involved in opening up rehab centers himself.

Lamar checked out the property — which sits on an acre of land — and the pastor decided to gift it to him with the intention of using it as a sanctuary for people battling fentanyl addiction.

We’re told the property, once owned by the American Legion, is getting a whole new lease on life under Lamar’s Odom Recovery Group.

Of course, Lamar’s already made a considerable impact across different communities with his network of addiction treatment facilities. From Restoration Recovery in Sacramento to Compassions in Laguna Hills … from Inner Minds Health in San Bernardino to Vanity Wellness Center in Woodland Hills … he’s covering some serious ground.

Lamar’s not just stopping at addiction treatment — he’s also keeping busy in the dentistry world with his new venture, Oxy Dental.

After battling his own demons with addiction, the fact that Lamar’s using his experiences to help others turn their lives around is truly heartwarming.
