Recovery Centers of America Partners with the Philadelphia Eagles
In a groundbreaking move for community health, Recovery Centers of America (RCA) is excited to announce a multi-year partnership with the Philadelphia Eagles. This collaboration is set to significantly benefit fans and local communities by raising awareness about addiction treatment and mental health resources. Together, these two influential organizations are committed to fostering a culture of support and accessibility for individuals suffering from substance use disorders.
The Vision Behind the Partnership
RCA, known for its evidence-based treatment programs, understands that stigma surrounding addiction often prevents individuals from seeking the help they need. By teaming up with the Philadelphia Eagles, a beloved NFL team, RCA aims to generate meaningful conversations and combat this stigma effectively. Brett Cohen, CEO of RCA, expressed the significance of this partnership: “When a major NFL franchise stands with us in this fight, it sends a powerful message that addiction treatment should not be hidden but embraced.”
Engaging the Community
As part of this initiative, RCA will host an outreach campaign at the Eagles’ home field, Lincoln Financial Field. This program will not only promote accessible resources for addiction recovery but also facilitate dialogue about mental health challenges faced by countless individuals.
The initiative’s goal is to create a supportive community where people can comfortably discuss their struggles and seek guidance. Through interactive events that encourage fan and community engagement, RCA and the Eagles will provide an opportunity for local residents to come together and share their experiences.
Activities at Lincoln Financial Field
Fans will notice prominent RCA branding throughout Lincoln Financial Field, as well as scheduled appearances during game days. The partnership will feature informative segments in radio broadcasts and spotlights on the Eagles’ social media platforms. This multifaceted approach allows RCA to utilize an array of channels to reach thousands of individuals, ensuring the message of recovery resonates with as many people as possible.
Additionally, both organizations plan to host community events that will engage various stakeholders, from healthcare professionals to former patients, to foster a sense of camaraderie and connection through shared experiences.
A Shared Commitment to Well-Being
The Philadelphia Eagles have gained a reputation for their commitment to social responsibility and community efforts. Brian Napoli, Senior Vice President of Corporate Partnerships for the Eagles, shared his perspective on this collaboration. He noted, “Recovery Centers of America is the type of community-focused partner we’re proud to work with. This partnership enables us to make a positive difference in the lives of our fans and community members.”
This collaboration also aligns with RCA’s mission to support one million individuals in achieving long-term recovery through access to comprehensive treatment programs across various neighborhoods. With 12 treatment facilities in seven states, RCA is dedicated to providing high-quality care to those affected by substance use disorders.
Conclusion
As RCA and the Eagles launch this vital initiative, they set a powerful example of how sports and healthcare can unite to foster positive change. Their joint efforts reflect a profound accessibility movement to ensure that treatment and mental wellness are prioritized across communities, ultimately paving the way for a more understanding and supportive society when it comes to the challenges of addiction. By standing together, they are not only transforming perceptions around recovery but also taking significant strides towards a healthier nation.
