“ 60-85% of people with addiction recover when they receive appropriate treatment over time; a higher rate of recovery than other chronic diseases.”

“ Eighteen months to two years is the recommended length of active addiction treatment to achieve sustained recovery.”

“ People who need treatment in Virginia have to wait an average of 25.4 days to get into services. For treatment to be effective, it should be available when a person is ready.”
