Getting to Know You

Meet Rise Recovery Board Member

JJ Casey

Program Director at Conduent,

Rise Recovery Public Relations/Community Awareness Chair

I serve on the Board because Rise Recovery facilitates health and joy in place of sickness and sorrow, family in place of broken homes, and hope where there may be none at all. The greater San Antonio area benefits immeasurably from the cost-free services and programs Rise provides to children, young adults and their families, and I am very proud to be part of an organization that has such a profound, positive impact on our community.

Say Yes...Positively

In this short video, Master Addictions Counselor Mary Ann Badenoch, LPC offers a reframing of the idea of enabling – one that focuses on setting limits, encouraging healthy behaviors and ignoring unwanted ones. “It’s okay to do something nice for your child,” she explains. “After all, you love them and want to stay connected with them.”

Am I enabling my child by helping them if they use drugs or alcohol?

Why is my kid using and what can I do about it?

Teens use substances for many reasons like fitting in, to gain confidence in a social setting, to cope with change in their lives, or to dull psychological or emotional pain, but there are steps you can take to do something about it.
