Recovery knowledge from those who have been there
TRUE RECOVERY RVA
The lived experience of those associated with True Recovery equips us to help individuals seeking recovery. We consider this lived experience a privilege and have a passion for leading others down the pathway. We support many pathways to recovery, including those on medically assisted treatment (MAT). We know that recovery is the solution to addiction and look forward to the opportunity of showing others the freedom from addiction and hope that recovery provides.

SHADOW PROGRAM
Individualized Recovery Exposure
For individuals who continually struggle to grasp recovery, True Recovery offers an individualized shadow program.
This involves nearly constant interaction with and exposure to people in long-term recovery. The individual will spend their days in an recovery coaching environment, learning from years of first hand experience. The shadow program increases the individual’s accountability while reducing their toxicity to peers also in the residence.
The shadow program provides the individual with the unique experience of learning how to live without the use of drugs or alcohol while dealing with every day life.
