About Us

Growth of the human spiritLocated just south of Houston, Texas, Bay Area Recovery Center (BARC) is a residential and extended care facility that has provided relief from and treatment for chemical dependency since 1992. Fully licensed by the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS), our five facilities are within close proximity of each other and provide a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for the treatment of chemical dependency.

At BARC, our success is due in part to our commitment, approach and understanding of addiction, which is reflected in individuals who go on to live happy, useful and meaningful lives, in spite of their seemingly hopeless conditions. In our chemical dependency program in Houston, we combine cutting-edge philosophies with down-to-earth, straightforward principles that have a 70-year track record as the most effective treatment for alcoholism and drug addiction. These are treatable mental illnesses, and we believe the approach, delivery and atmosphere in which treatment is experienced are the single most important elements in achieving success.

We are dedicated professionals, committed to the care and improvement of human life. In recognition of this commitment, we strive to provide the highest-quality care. We recognize the worth and uniqueness of each individual and treat those we serve with complete compassion, kindness and understanding.

We believe the atmosphere in which addiction recovery takes place is significant to the growth of the human spirit. The setting for our chemical dependency program in Texas includes private residences that are clean, modern and comfortable with lush, well-kept grounds. There is an overall feeling of peacefulness and harmony in this environment that contributes to the success of our program.

Our chemical dependency treatment facilities are located just outside of Houston, Texas. Please browse our Web site to learn more about our programs and resources.

Amanda's Story

"To me, my brother was always "just there." It seemed like no one saw him, heard him, even me. I won't go into specifics of how his drug use started and where it went, that's not necessary....only that it got so bad that he might as well have been dead, because there was no Jeremy. Just a body hanging around, which by the way if you've never loved someone with a drug problem, is far worse than them actually being dead."

"But he did not die. He was reborn. I searched for days on end for the "right" kind of recovery for him. Something kept bringing me back to this one place: Bay Area Recovery Center. I searched over and over to figure out why. I sifted through so much information and talked to so many people, but I just knew that was the place. Well, I didn't know, God knew and whispered it to me, so to speak."
