Facts about Recovery Resources

Who We Are

Addiction and mental health challenges can affect anyone. Approximately 1,100 college freshmen will complete suicide this year; the majority as the result of untreated depression.

  1. Approximately 1 in 4 high school and college students report binge drinking at least once a month.
  2. Heroin has become an epidemic in Northeast Ohio.
  3. Mental illness strikes 1 in 4 Americans, and young adults are the most vulnerable to its onset.
  4. We predict that 2-5% of people who engage in online gaming and other gambling activity will develop problem gambling behavior.

At Recovery Resources, providing comprehensive behavioral health care is our passion and we work tirelessly with those we serve and our community partners to make this goal a reality, but we can’t do it without your help.

Our experience made us who we are

In 2000, two Cleveland agencies merged to become Recovery Resources, where mental illness and addictions of all types could be treated under one roof in an integrated way– a critical need for those who were dually diagnosed. This family soon grew with the addition of Community Challenge in 2008, which increased our footprint with young people in the suburban West Shore. Our continuum of care grew once again in 2011 with the addition of Spectrum of Supportive Services, which broadened our housing services and added services focused on helping people re-enter the workforce.

Today we honor our founders every day by helping others

  • See the immense possibilities that recovery offers
