Our Drug-Free Communities initiative is a collaborative effort aimed at reducing substance use across Burke County. We work with local organizations, schools, and community leaders to create and implement strategies that promote a drug-free lifestyle. This program is a critical component of our broader community engagement efforts, supporting the long-term health and safety of all residents.
The Burke Substance Abuse Network (BSAN) is a coalition of providers, support groups, agencies, and other stakeholders dedicated to addressing substance use in Burke County. BSAN focuses on networking, identifying service gaps, and strategically planning responses to community needs, particularly in reducing substance use among youth, young adults, and their families.
BSAN is committed to creating a vibrant, recovery-oriented community in Burke County. We achieve this by bringing together many community resources, including public and private sectors, law enforcement, educators, business and civic leaders, and the faith community. This collaboration ensures that every individual and family in need of treatment and recovery support services has access to the help they need.
These diverse perspectives ensure that BSAN’s strategies and initiatives are comprehensive and effective.

The Trident Task Force organizes monthly events that foster connection, education, and support among youth and the broader community. These events include activities chosen by the youth. Burke Recovery provides funding and supervision of these events. We encourage our youth to be creative in their ideas and we support their decisions. Through these activities, the Task Force creates a vibrant platform for dialogue on substance use prevention, mental health awareness, and the promotion of healthy lifestyles. Community members not only gain valuable knowledge but also contribute to a collective effort to build a safer, healthier environment for everyone.

The School Intervention Program (ScIP) is designed to provide education and treatment resources to students throughout Burke County. It is a referral-based program that identifies students that have violated tobacco, vape, alcohol, or substance use policies of Burke County Public Schools. Once the referral is made by the school administration, our Adolescent Prevention Specialists will engage the student with the ScIP Program. By identifying and addressing issues early on, ScIP helps prevent the escalation of substance use and related problems. This program works closely with schools, students, and parents to provide the guidance and resources necessary for students to succeed.

In the journey of recovery, striving for progress rather than perfection is essential. “Progress Not Perfection” is a principle that encourages individuals to focus on their growth and improvement, recognizing that perfection is an unrealistic and often discouraging goal.
Recovery is not just a possibility; it is a reality for countless individuals who have struggled with addiction. “We Do Recover” is a powerful affirmation that acknowledges the journey of healing and growth that is possible through dedication, support, and the right resources.
Recovery is a deeply personal and transformative process. It often begins with admitting the need for help and taking the courageous step to seek treatment. At our facility, we provide a safe and nurturing environment where individuals can embark on their recovery journey with confidence and hope.
Through comprehensive treatment programs that include therapy, counseling, and support groups, we address the physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of addiction. Our holistic approach ensures that everyone receives personalized care tailored to their unique needs.
“We Do Recover” is more than a statement; it is a testament to the resilience and strength of the human spirit. It is a reminder that with perseverance, support, and the right mindset, recovery is not just a dream but a lived reality. Our community is a testament to this truth, with countless success stories that inspire and uplift.
Join us on this journey of recovery and discover the strength within you. Together, we can overcome addiction and build a future filled with hope, health, and happiness.
