SAARA is Virginia's statewide Recovery Community Organization. We are your recovery community organization. Our members include hundreds of people in recovery, their families, friends, and recovery-friendly businesses and other organizations. We are putting a face on recovery and showing our communities that recovery happens. We are building services and supports to develop recovery capital. We are filling gaps in services so that we may help people initiate and sustain recovery. We are showing our communities how recovery happens! Please read more on these pages about who we are, where we've been, and where we're going. We believe you will want to join us!
