RCA at Indianapolis is proud to offer residential and outpatient treatment for primary mental health diagnoses—with or without an active SUD diagnosis. As CEO, Christine Schultz shared with Becker’s Behavioral Health, this expansion is about meeting patients where they are, eliminating care gaps, and building on the trusted relationships already in place.

By launching new mental–health–only residential, IOP, and PHP services, we’re making it possible for more people to get the help they need, without having to start over somewhere else.

For many, Easter is a time for family, renewal, and new beginnings. But for others, it’s a quiet reminder of hidden struggles—battles with substance use, mental health, or feeling stuck.

At Recovery Centers of America, we’ve seen it time and again: someone walks in thinking all is lost, only to find that hope was never gone. It was just waiting to be rediscovered.

Hope is always in season. Even on the hardest days. Especially during the holidays.

If you or someone you love is ready for change, we’re here 24/7, every day of the year.
