San Antonio, TX (June 28, 2024) – School is out for the summer and our teens need a safe, recovery-oriented place to hang out. To fill this gap in the community, we are proud to host another year of our summer programs designed to support teens ages 12-17 in recovery. The goal of our summer program is always to foster a positive environment along with holistic development by offering a variety of activities that stimulate the mind, heart, and body.

From June through August, the Rise Recovery Summer Program is a safe space for teens who struggle without the support and structure of school. Our program is completely free and offers activities like bowling, painting, swimming, movies, and game nights. Join us Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Fridays from 6 to 9 p.m. at 2803 Mossrock Dr., San Antonio, TX 78230. To enroll in the summer program, teens must attend our Drug Education and Newcomer Orientation that takes place every Monday from 6 to 8:30 p.m.

During the school year, students benefit from recovery-based learning and support directly on their school campuses. However, many students find themselves without essential recovery resources during the summer. To fill that gap, we have curated a diverse lineup of free activities that will encourage healthy decision-making, ignite curiosity, promote physical well-being, and cultivate a sense of wonder among the children we serve. From ice skating to golf, Missions Baseball games to exploring the wonders of Enchanted Rock, Japanese Tea Gardens, and Natural Bridge Caverns, our calendar is filled with opportunities for adventure and growth. 

To enroll, call Rise Recovery at 210-227-2634 or email [email protected]. For those interested in financially supporting the summer program, please visit our website at https://www.riserecovery.org/about-us/donate/. 

Our goal is to ensure that every student who needs support can participate in our summer programs, but we can’t do it alone. Every $150 raised helps one student engage in our summer recovery programs. We invite our community to help us reach our fundraising goal with a gift today. Whether it’s $25 or $500, every contribution makes a significant impact.

No gift is too small. To help our teens, please visit our website at www.riserecovery.org/donate. Please know that your support, whether now or in the future, is deeply appreciated. For more information, call (210) 227-2634 or e-mail [email protected].
