Registered Peer Recovery Support

The role of the RPRS at Journey House Behavioral Health RVA reflects a collaborative and strength-based approach, with the primary goal being to assist individuals and family members in achieving sustained recovery from the effects of substance use and/or mental health issues. RPRS’s are not clinicians; they serve in a supportive role within the community and/or treatment setting. They do not replace other professional services; they complement the existing array of support services.

The RPRS is not a sponsor, case manager or a therapist but rather a role model, mentor, advocate and motivator.

Services provided by the RPRS are a critical component of services that will substantially improve an individual’s ability to sustain recovery and wellness.
