Volusia Recovery Alliance

Mission: We exist to serve all those seeking recovery from the impact of addiction including families, friends and allies. Vision: The VRA works to mobilize resources, reduce barriers, increase awareness and support in an effort to eliminate stigma and enhance recovery through multiple pathways. Who We Are: We are people in recovery from Substance Use Disorder (SUD), their peers, families and allies. What We Do: We are a recovery hub for resources for anyone who is seeking recovery or is a family member or friend looking for help. We are working to make the community a recovery ready community. This means we continue to identify resources for recovery, including employers who are recovery friendly and we share the information. Employment especially is a barrier of the peer movement. Our goal is to break down the common barriers that keep people from recovery. How we do this: * Increase opportunities to access SUD recovery resources * Meet people where they are in any stage of recovery * Offer peer supported guidance and evidence based services. * Support all aspects of recovery * Provide resources that support education, employment, health, and quality of life for people in recovery and their families * Educate the community about SUD * Advocate for people in all stages of recovery * Increase good will and community support for people in recovery Why? *One in three people are directly affected by SUD *Recovery is attainable and sustainable. *We must replace fear and pessimism about SUD with security and hope.
