About Us | United Recovery Project
Our Story
CEO Bryan Alzate, together with his partners, founded United Recovery Project in 2016. A native of Davie, Florida, Bryan knows the insufferable consequences of addiction all too well. His hometown of Davie is the epicenter of the region’s opioid crisis. Growing up in Florida’s drug haven, Bryan, and many of his peers, experimented with drugs and eventually became addicts. However, it wasn’t just Bryan’s own addiction that immersed him into the world of substance abuse. Bryan soon realized the widespread impact drugs left on his community; he wasn’t the only one suffering. It became apparent: addiction impacted virtually everyone in his South Florida community in one way or another.
After seeing his friends, family, and colleagues abuse drugs and alcohol, reality set in: Davie had a catastrophic problem, and there weren’t enough treatment options for those battling addiction. Bryan knew that addiction wasn’t a problem unique to Davie; instead, it was a crisis affecting not only South Florida but the entire United States. The Davie native knew there had to be a better solution to combat the area’s ongoing addiction problem.
Bryan spoke with his peers who had received treatment at local facilities, and what he heard fueled the fire that ignited inside him. Those who entrusted him shared their horror stories of treatment centers that preyed on vulnerable individuals who sought to achieve sobriety. He knew that such facilities were doing more harm than good and that something had to change. Bryan experienced the horror stories first-hand when he went to rehab himself, further supporting his conclusion that the area needed more compassionate and welcoming drug and alcohol addiction treatment options.
United Recovery Project is a product of Bryan Alzate’s first-hand experience battling addiction and seeing the subpar treatment available in South Florida. At United Recovery Project, our clients are our number one priority. In fact, we develop our treatment programs based on the needs and wellbeing of our clients. From our wide selection of therapy options to our luxury amenities, we thoughtfully plan our programs and facilities with our client’s best interests in mind.

He lives every day with a humble passion for helping addicts prosper on their path to recovery in a luxurious and welcoming environment. Your success is our success, and we couldn’t be happier to be a part of your journey.

Rehab Alumni Program
Our rehab alumni program is living proof that addiction is a battle that you can beat, even if it currently feels like an out-of-reach dream. We started our rehab alumni program to create a welcoming space where substance abuse treatment graduates can connect with new clients and discuss their mutual goal: lifelong sobriety. Alumni events include holiday festivities, picnics, virtual meetings, weekly softball league games, and more. Events often feature guest speakers who share their personal hurdles on their journey to recovery and offer invaluable support as someone who has stood in your shoes. Our alumni coordinators reach out to participants on a weekly basis and send monthly emails to keep you connected. You can also stay up-to-date on the current happenings on the alumni Facebook page.
Uniting with successful graduates creates immeasurable value for our clients. It allows them to see that there’s a light at the end of the tunnel – a light that leads them to a fulfilling and sober life.
