This COA Week, we’re centering the voices that don’t always get the spotlight.

To the parent working to break the cycle.
To the adult child still untangling it.

You are not alone. 🫶

We see you.
And we’re holding space for your story.

Addiction may run in families. But so can healing. 💚

These are words we hear every day, from people who never thought they'd call.

But they did. ❤️

If any of it sounds familiar, you don’t have to feel this way anymore.

⭐ Catching Up With Our Executive Director, Chris Bailey ⭐

We recently managed to get Chris to sit down for more than five consecutive minutes.�

Which, if you’ve ever been at River Oaks, you know is no small feat! (He’s moving from patient conversations to staff check-ins — and everything in-between — making sure people are seen and supported 🏃)

Chris has built a career rooted in leadership, service, and care. He holds multiple advanced degrees — including a PhD — and brings that knowledge into the day-to-day reality of running a treatment center where people matter more than titles.

But credentials only tell part of the story.

The truth is, Chris is always in motion — thinking, building, showing up. So when we asked him how he manages to do it all without burning out, his answer was simple:

👉 “Discipline is freedom.”

For Chris, discipline isn’t about rigidity or perfection. It’s about creating structure so there’s room for what matters most: meaningful work, family, faith, health, and joy. ❤️

When your daily life is grounded in intention, you’re not constantly reacting. You’re choosing.

🎖 Veterans: support is within reach!

If alcohol or substance use has become a struggle, you’re not alone -- and you don’t have to figure out next steps by yourself.

Many Veterans don’t realize how accessible VA-supported care can be.

💡 Your first steps:
1️⃣ Visit your local VA and identify yourself as a Veteran.
2️⃣ They’ll help access your military records and complete a counseling assessment.
3️⃣ From there, you can choose the level of care that’s right for you—inpatient, outpatient, or residential—covered by the VA.

If you’d rather receive care outside a VA facility, you can request a community care partner and the VA can authorize treatment here.

You’ve carried the weight of service. You don’t have to carry this alone. 💚

💬 Message us privately if you’d like guidance

Did you know River Oaks has an addiction medicine fellowship program?

We’re training the next generation of medical professionals to understand addiction and mental health -- and to meet people with compassion and empathy.

🫶 While evidence-based care is what we teach, humanity is at the core of what we do.

At River Oaks, we meet people where they are.

We see everyone first as human beings, deserving of the chance to find and maintain recovery, whether it’s their first time in treatment or their tenth.

Because recovery is for everyone. ❤️

Dry January is ending and it's a good time to check in. What came up for you this month? 🤔

What did you notice about your relationship with alcohol?
👉 Was it easy to not drink?
👉 Was it harder than you thought?
👉 What surprised you about going alcohol-free?

Whether it was easy or hard, it's data not judgment. If stopping felt harder than expected, it may be a sign worth listening to. ❤️

If you tried Dry January, let's talk about what you learned! 💬

In a recent interview with MedTech Spectrum, our Clinical Director, Brianna Hardcastle, shared an important insight: when mental health care is only available at the point of crisis, people often end up cycling through emergency rooms, without the time, continuity, or structure needed to truly stabilize.

She explains why expanding access to earlier, longer-term mental health care is essential -- especially for individuals who need more support than weekly outpatient therapy but don’t require hospitalization.
