Opiate Recovery Center of Addiction (ORCA)

The Opiate Recovery Center of Addiction (Orca) in Waskom, Texas, offers medication assisted recovery options for people experiencing opiate addictions. Their medication and dosing options provide adult women and men in the local community convenient access to FDA approved methadone and Subutex, along with comprehensive treatment.

Addressing difficult withdrawal symptoms during recovery is not just helpful but it can also be lifesaving in some serious cases. It also gives the recovering patient greater emotional and mental leeway to address the underlying thoughts and behaviors that surround their cravings.
This center is keenly aware of the community’s collective mental health. They regularly volunteer their time for food drives and distribute helpful, free educational information. These events also give them a great opportunity to network and perform early social screenings with vulnerable groups. Leadership by example sets this place apart.
