🏔️❤️ This past weekend, the teams from Starfish Recovery & Wellness and StarCity Behavioral Health came together for our annual Mountain Retreat under the banner of Recovery City.

🌟 More than a company getaway, this retreat reflects our commitment to a Wellness Recovery Oriented System of Care: a belief that recovery, wellness, and personal growth extend beyond our clients and into the lives of our employees and their families.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 One of the things that makes this retreat special is that it isn't just for our staff. The owners intentionally include spouses, partners, and children because we recognize that when we invest in our people, we invest in the families who support them every day.

💙 Just as we work to help transform the lives of the individuals we serve, we want to create opportunities for our team members and their loved ones to build memories, strengthen relationships, and experience the joy that comes from being part of something bigger than themselves.

🚙🌲 Throughout the weekend, we shared meals, explored the mountains, hit the trails, laughed together, and celebrated the incredible people who make our mission possible.

✨ At Recovery City, we never forget our guiding principle:

Our Business Is Change.🔄
Our Business Is People.👥
Our Business Is Helping People Change.❤️

🙏 Thank you to every employee and family member who joined us and helped make this retreat unforgettable. We are grateful for each of you and proud to continue building a culture where recovery, wellness, family, and community come first.

🏡🤝 Together, we're building more than organizations—we're building a community dedicated to changing lives.

What is Kratom? (Mitragyna speciosa) aka Kratom is an unregulated herbal supplement marketed as a stimulant at low doses and a sedative/pain reliever at higher doses. Despite user claims that it helps lift mood, boost energy, or ease opioid withdrawal symptoms, according to the FDA and the Mayo Clinic, Kratom is unsafe and ineffective.

Benzodiazepines are powerful prescription sedatives that calm the central nervous system, but they carry a high risk of physical dependence and addiction. Mixing them with alcohol or opioids can easily cause a fatal overdose, and stopping them suddenly can trigger life-threatening seizures. If you or anyone you know is suffering from an addiction to benzos, please contact us at (804)-773-4411 or visit our website at https://starcitybh.com
