Recovery Resource Council

Recovery Resource Council turns 80! 🥳 Watch our special video below honoring the people, stories, and moments that have shaped our work over the past eight decades.

Since 1946, the Council has grown to meet the changing needs of our communities—expanding from education around alcoholism into a comprehensive approach to recovery, mental health, prevention, and housing support across 61 Texas counties.

For 80 years, this work has been made possible by the dedication of our staff, the courage of the individuals and families we serve, and the support of a community that believes in recovery.

As we celebrate this milestone, we also look ahead to the future with new and improved campuses and the same commitment to wellness and recovery that continues to guide our mission today.

Thank you for being part of this community and helping make the next chapter possible. 💙

For this spring’s , meet Mayra Berrios! She serves as the Assistant Director and Intake Coordinator for the Council’s Enduring Families program, where she supports veterans and their families through trauma-informed counseling and care.

Mayra’s path to this work is deeply rooted in service. She served as a Fleet Marine Force (FMF) Corpsman and Medical Laboratory Technician during her enlistment with tours both overseas and stateside. After her military service, she continued supporting others by working with survivors of domestic violence and volunteering as a Sexual Assault Victim Advocate in Tarrant County.

Her connection to the veteran community—and her own experience transitioning out of the military—inspired her to continue serving in a new way. “After discharging from the Navy, I felt like I wasn’t done serving,” Mayra shared. “Working with the veteran community feels like I am still serving the community that I am a part of.”

Since joining the Council in 2023, Mayra has played a key role in helping veterans and their families access care. Through Enduring Families, she helps coordinate intakes, connect clients to counseling services, and ensure individuals receive the support and resources they need. The program provides individual, couples, and child play therapy—supporting both veterans and their loved ones as they navigate the impacts of trauma, stress, and life transitions.

For Mayra, one of the most rewarding parts of her work is helping veterans reconnect with stability and support. “After my enlistment ended, I struggled alone to find my place outside the military,” she shared. “Through Enduring Families, veterans don’t have to struggle alone.”

By strengthening veterans and their families, Mayra’s work helps create more stable homes, reduce isolation, and promote long-term mental health and well-being. Through compassion, connection, and a continued commitment to service, she plays an important role in helping individuals and families move forward with hope.
