NRV Recovery Ecosystem

Program Overview

Addiction doesn’t happen in a vacuum, neither does recovery. Substance abuse disorders (SUDs) affect our entire community, impacting families and friends, healthcare, and our economy.

The NRV Recovery Ecosystem received $3.3 million in Opioid Abatement Authority funding to address the impacts of substance use disorder in our region, bringing together Floyd, Giles, Montgomery, and Pulaski counties, the city of Radford, and partnering service agencies. Focusing on prevention, treatment, recovery, and harm reduction, together we will address the negative impacts of substance use disorders in our region.

Treatment, Recovery & Harm Reduction

Prevention & Underlying Impacts

Teaming with NRCA, NRVSS, CFNRV, NRVCS, NRCC, Instill Mindfulness, Pyramid Healthcare, Giles Health & Family, and local governments, and schools, this funding tackles issues affecting communities and individuals in recovery.
