We are thrilled to announce that Jamaica Bartz, our Chief Operations Officer and longtime team member, has been named Executive Director of Waterfront. Jamaica has been an integral part of Waterfront since the very beginning—even before our doors officially opened. Her journey began at the former social model detox facility operated by Alcohol Drug Care Services (ADCS) as a detox specialist, laying the foundation for her deep understanding of the field.
Waterfront, as a medically managed program, differs significantly from the social model, and Jamaica has been with us through every challenge, transition, and milestone. Over the years, she has taken on a wide range of roles, gaining valuable hands-on experience in nearly every facet of our operations. From her start as a Counselor, she quickly advanced to Lead Counselor, Admissions Supervisor, Director of Admissions, Assistant Clinical Director, and ultimately Chief Operations Officer.
Now, as she steps into the role of Executive Director, we are excited to see her bring her extensive experience, leadership, and unique perspective to guide Waterfront into the future.
Announcing Our New Executive Director: Jamaica Bartz

This month, we bid a heartfelt farewell to our Executive Director, Jeremy Campbell, as he embarks on an exciting new chapter in his life.
Jeremy stepped into leadership following the passing of our cofounder, John McMannus, and over the past three years, has played a pivotal role in continuing to grow and strengthen our organization. His dedication, vision, and steady guidance have made a lasting impact.
We extend our deepest gratitude to Jeremy for his service and leadership, and we wish him every success in his educational and professional journey on the East Coast—alongside his new bride!
