Substance Abuse Resources
Addiction knows no boundaries and impacts people from every walk of life in every community.
Recovering from addiction begins with a desire for change and cannot be done alone. Connecting with recovery resources and professionals is an important step in the journey to sobriety.
If you’re looking for an interventionist, detox facility, treatment center, sober living environment, counselor/therapist, or 12 step programs, we are fortunate to have a number of these quality resources available right here in Richmond, VA.
Visit RVASoberliving.org for an expansive list of local resources.
