October 7, 2026 - 04:49

Alabama-based addiction treatment provider Bradford Health Services has named Jason Langley as its inaugural president, marking a significant shift in the organization's leadership structure. This is a newly created role for the company, which has operated for decades without a president overseeing daily operations.

Langley brings extensive experience in behavioral health management to the position. He previously held executive roles at several healthcare organizations, focusing on operational strategy and clinical service expansion. His background includes work in both inpatient and outpatient treatment settings, giving him a broad perspective on the challenges facing addiction care providers.

In his new role, Langley will oversee the company's network of treatment facilities across the Southeast. Bradford Health Services operates numerous locations offering detox, residential rehabilitation, and outpatient programs. The organization has grown steadily in recent years, responding to rising demand for substance use disorder treatment.

The decision to create a presidential position reflects the company's evolving needs as it scales operations. Leadership at Bradford stated that Langley's appointment will allow the chief executive officer to focus on long-term strategic initiatives while Langley manages day-to-day functions.

Langley said he looks forward to working with clinical teams and expanding access to care. He emphasized that the opioid crisis and other substance use challenges require adaptable, community-focused solutions. His priorities include strengthening referral partnerships and improving patient outcomes through evidence-based practices.

The appointment takes effect immediately. Bradford Health Services continues to serve patients throughout Alabama and neighboring states.
