COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT

A Holistic Recovery Campus COMING SOON TO EASTERN, NC

Haven at Blue Creek is nestled on a 300-acre land parcel amid beautiful rolling farmlands on the outskirts of Greenville, North Carolina. Greenville is well known for its major health system that is one of only a few; level one trauma centers that are integrated with a top-notch medical school. Mild weather year-round makes North Carolina an exceptional location for addiction treatment and recovery. Open aired and expansive, the campus creates a serene and carefully planned campus where healing happens.

The Haven at Blue Creek campus is both peaceful and private, boasting three bodies of water and a wooded perimeter that provides privacy and serenity. Initial construction of the campus has begun, with a Spiritual Renewal Center and athletic facilities, including an Olympic-sized pool, already completed.

COMMITTED TO YOU

Haven at Blue Creek is a family owned and operated, world class treatment center, dedicated to being a safe haven to those wanting to change their life. Their team is driven by passion to provide the best care to patients that need focused time, education, and empathy within a community-based facility. They are a registered not for profit center that is committed to a mission that will lift people with a lifetime of hope.

Rich and Colleen Balot are deep into a thorough development of Haven at Blue Creek. This substance use disorder campus is being thoughtfully developed from the ground up, with both best practices and the needs of Eastern North Carolina top of mind. What will result from their commitment to this project is a much-needed addition to the community that promises recovery for many and positive growth for the entire region.

OUR COMMUNITY, OUR FAMILY.

The Balot’s have a home-grown passion for this project decades in the making. Colleen and Rich Balot are long-time residents of Greenville, graduates of East Carolina University, and active members of the Greenville community. If being “green-blooded” could be said about a family so rooted in this community, then the Balot’s are proud to be so. Rich Balot started his first business as a teen here at DH Conley High School, followed by a second at the age of 19 while a freshman in college. The Balot’s now own multiple businesses in Greenville, which have added 500+ jobs to the region in the last 12 months alone- a figure which is among their greatest rewards from the experience.

HAVEN AT BLUE CREEK PHILOSOPHY

THE FUTURE A DAY AT A TIME

Haven at Blue Creek lovingly provides compassionate treatment for those battling substance use disorders and co-occurring disorders. The Haven at Blue Creek wellness team gives patients the tools they need to begin a lifetime of enduring recovery. They offer all levels of care: detoxification, stabilization, residential treatment, comprehensive discharge, and after planning. The tranquil and private setting is the perfect complement to a caring, honest, and empathic treatment environment.

Haven at Blue Creek will need community assistance in many ways as they develop their 250-acre campus to serve individuals and families experiencing substance use disorders and other underlying behavioral health disorders. Donations will support programs for the community-based treatment center looking to offer world class treatment to anyone seeking recovery. A Scholarship fund to support individuals and families who have no insurance, or are under-insured, will be an ongoing priority for Haven’s fundraising programs. Focused gifts can be developed to meet your heart felt interests from naming opportunities to sponsoring a program for someone in need.

If you or someone you know has time to volunteer, a specific skill set or credential that would help us serve our future clients or developing campus; or the capacity to donate, find donors to assist in the campus naming and building, please contact them at info@havenatbluecreek.com.
