About the Meridians Recovery Model

Meridians Recovery’s residential program is located in a large 4 bedroom house in Sterling Virginia near the community college. Nestled in Eastern Loudoun County we will utilize many of the opportunities available to us such as Claude Moore, Algonkian, Great Falls Parks as well as the nearby Potomac River for recreation and teaching. There are many job opportunities nearby if you are graduating to the sober living program.

At Meridians Recovery we know what you’ll need to be successful: self management, a goal oriented sense of purpose, solid problem-solving and emotional skills, good health habits, focused activities and meaningful relationships in your personal recovery from substance abuse. Our staff and peers will work with you, not against you, to accomplish these goals.

Meridians Recovery is a Recovery Community Organization (RCO). An RCO is defined in-part as having resources such as: Sober Living housing, Transitional Recovery Houses, Opiate, alcohol and Benzodiazepine Social Detox, and being connected with alcohol and drug rehabs, substance abuse treatment and aftercare. We offer a social model recovery program similar to substance abuse treatment centers that implements Peer-to-Peer delivered Recovery Support Services (PRSS).

Here at Meridians Recovery, we have an authentic peer-oriented social model program. The first thirty days is our most critical period of  recovery. It is at this time we make our greatest inroads in building our recovery foundation. We implement rapid entry into involvement with available pathways to long term successful recovery. We actually begin to instill a genuine desire in the individual to chase their recovery by the example in which we do recover. By this time, the individual should be well on their way in recovery. Through authentic peer-oriented guidance, the individual has a good understanding of what it takes to recover on a daily basis. The longer the individual stays in an authentic peer-oriented system of care, the greater are their chances at full recovery from their substance use disorder.
