Alumni Resources and Aftercare: Your Recovery Community in Southwest Virginia

Completing inpatient or residential treatment is a significant achievement. However, discharge day is not the end; it’s just the beginning of the ongoing work necessary for lasting recovery. The weeks and months following treatment are often the most vulnerable times in the recovery process. Having the right community and support in place can make a world of difference.

Recovery Connections SWVA was created with alumni in mind. Our downtown location serves as a dedicated hub for individuals who have completed addiction treatment and are actively working on their recovery, alongside local community members seeking peer support, meetings, and practical assistance. Whether you finished treatment yesterday or ten years ago, you are welcome here.

Why Aftercare and Alumni Support Matter

Research is clear: people who remain engaged with recovery support services after completing treatment have significantly better long-term outcomes. Aftercare isn’t a sign of weakness – it’s one of the most effective tools available for sustaining sobriety.

At Recovery Connections SWVA, aftercare means access to:

  • AA, NA, Celebrate Recovery, and Al-Anon meetings – a full weekly schedule of peer-led support groups hosted in our downtown facility
  • Employment support – resume help, interview coaching, and employer connections for those re-entering the workforce
  • GED tutoring – free educational support for alumni pursuing their high school equivalency
  • Financial literacy classes – building the money management skills that support a stable, sober life
  • Peer community – a welcoming space where people in recovery can connect, encourage one another, and belong

Together We're Stronger
