Recover Virginia

We offer a free friendly, non-judgmental welcome to anyone who needs help with addiction recovery and/or mental health support. This free service meets the individual where they are at with understanding and compassion. Find hope while developing skills in a low stress environment with sober peers. Each incoming peer signs an agreement to protect everyone’s privacy and confidentiality while building life skills, self-esteem, personal resiliency, and most importantly, sobriety. We find and share resources with people looking to build a support system to help their recovery journey.  We offer groups, meetings, social events, and one on one peer support sessions.  We do this with peers that have the same or similar experience and have been successful in their own recovery process. As we like to say at Recover Virginia, you’re worth it so drop in!

These are some of the accomplishments of Recover Virginia’s First Quarter 2025.

 We had 114 different people come in during this time.

One Year Anniversary!

On March 11, 2025, Recover Virginia marked its one year anniversary of being open to the public. We continue to expand our services and our community outreach efforts.  Our staff continues to grow in experience. A RV staff member has taken 3 non-profit leadership management workshops at Mountain Gateway and has been recertified as a Certified Peer Recovery Specialist with the Virginia Certification Board. Lastly, a RV staff member has signed up for Integrated-Forensic Peer Recovery Specialist training. These are essential parts of helping those in need and help grow our staff’s capacity to better serve our community in the future. 

We have signed our first Memorandum of Understanding with Total Action for Progress (TAP) This Valley Works VA Offender Reentry Program.
