GREENVILLE, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Crossroads Treatment Centers (Crossroads), a leader in substance use disorder (SUD) treatment and recovery services, proudly accepted the Barrier Breaker Award at the annual Worth Saving Ball hosted by Savage Sisters, a Philadelphia-based nonprofit organization dedicated to providing trauma-informed resources for individuals recovering from SUD.
The prestigious award recognizes Crossroads’ commitment to minimizing barriers to care and increasing access through its community-focused approach. By cultivating partnerships with local organizations like Savage Sisters, Crossroads is able to expand availability to life-saving care and other community support programs for those most in need. Through these collaborative efforts, Crossroads ensures that critical, comprehensive resources reach individuals on their recovery journeys.
“Our partnership with Savage Sisters furthers our mission to improve health equity and deliver superior outcomes for people with substance use disorders,” said Dr. Rupert McCormac, Founder and CEO of Crossroads. “Their efforts in harm reduction, outreach, and housing further our Crossroads’ whole-person, equitable approach to recovery. Together, we are making a lasting impact on the lives we touch and the communities we serve in the Philadelphia area.”
For years now, Crossroads and Savage Sisters have joined forces with a shared mission to reduce the stigma that still surrounds the disease of addiction. Through educational efforts and a heightened understanding of brain chemistry and neuropathways, the partnership aims to break down systemic barriers that often discourage individuals from seeking the care they need and deserve. These joint efforts focus on providing holistic care, bringing to bear both the evidence-based medical treatment and social support necessary for long-term recovery.
