About Recovery Centers Of America

Founded in 2015, RCA has treated over 77,000 patients and is on a mission to save one million lives from the disease of addiction. Our treatment centers operate 24/7, providing compassionate, evidence-based care. Many of our team members have walked the path of recovery themselves, bringing a level of understanding and support that makes RCA a uniquely impactful place to work. A former patient may not be hired at the same location where they were treated until a minimum of one year has elapsed since the completion of their treatment at that location. Former patients may be considered for employment at other RCA locations within a year after treatment.
