Our target population is diverse. Our primary focus is to serve the indigent, jobless, homeless, uninsured and underinsured adult males and females who may otherwise be unable to access substance use disorder treatment through private and personal means. We primarily service the Crossroads Area, a 7-county region, but will serve any eligible adult in Texas.

Detoxification > Rehabilitation > Aftercare

Detox and residential treatment are a crucial healthcare component and continue to be the major gap for hundreds of individuals in our target population. These services have been non-existent in our community for over two decades. Detox helps stabilize patients and allows the body to rid itself of the alcohol and drugs safely. While in detox, patients start transitioning into the residential program. Without treatment in a continuum of care, patients are more likely to fall through the gaps in the system. This increases the risk of poor care and the increased likelihood of relapse, overdose and other difficult outcomes. Aftercare ensures that the individual has continued access to tools to stay active in their new sober life.

Over the last three years we averaged 490 admissions yearly into outpatient treatment. In 2020, 502 patients were admitted into outpatient services. Seventy-eight percent of those patients were considered indigent.

We estimate approximately 175 individuals per year seek detox and/or residential services directly through our facility. Additionally, Victoria Adult Probation refers approximately 70 people per year to residential services. Sadly, according to the Department of State Health Services, there were 37 non-fatal overdoses and 62 fatal overdoses in the Crossroads area in 2018.

To save lives, patients with substance use disorders need increased access to treatment. BTCRO and our Board of Directors are committed to providing a comprehensive substance abuse treatment program by adding detoxification and residential services for Victoria and the Crossroads area. A plan has been developed to construct a 35,700 square foot detox and residential facility located on TX-185, just outside of Victoria. The facility will include 30 male treatment beds and 22 female treatment beds, of which 12 beds, male and female combined, will serve as detox beds at any given time. The estimated cost of this vital project is approximately $9,150,000. Your donation or sponsorship will help us save lives right here in the Crossroads area by giving people a place to go to recover.
