We’re proud to share 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘌𝘖 𝘔𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘦’𝘴 latest feature on our CEO, Brett Cohen, and his ambitious plan to treat one million Americans struggling with substance addiction.

Since stepping into his role in 2023, Brett has focused on expanding Recovery Centers of America’s footprint, strengthening our outpatient services, and advocating for Medicaid-funded treatment—making high-quality, evidence-based care accessible to more people than ever before.

In the article, Brett highlights how RCA’s transformation—grounded in clinical excellence, cultural evolution, and financial accountability—is paving the way for broader reach and greater impact.

💬 “We’ve cared for over 77,000 individuals since RCA was founded eight years ago. We have a long way to go because, sadly, there’s a desperate need, but that’s what we’re here for – to save lives.”

Read more about Brett’s vision for RCA and how we are working to expand access, reduce barriers, and make recovery possible for more families across the U.S.

Recovery Centers of America (RCA) CEO Brett Cohen has a plan for treating one million Americans for substance addiction. It’s no easy feat in a country where 48.5 million people need treatment for substance abuse, yet less than a quarter of them receive it.

MAT saves lives—and it can help you or a loved one start the journey to recovery today.

Detox is NOT full recovery—it’s the first step. While detox removes substances from the body, it doesn’t address the mental, emotional, and behavioral aspects of addiction.

Without continued care, the risk of relapse is high. That’s why RCA provides:
✅ Medical detox to ensure safety & comfort
✅ Counseling & therapy to uncover root causes
✅ A clear transition into inpatient or outpatient treatment

Recovery doesn’t end with detox. It begins there. Ready for the next step? Call (833) 71-RECOVERY or visit https://bit.ly/4kyJxAi to learn more.
