The REACH Center
The REACH Center is a safe and sober environment open to anyone wanting to participate in a recovery-based, supportive community. REACH is a reminder of our recovery, empowerment, advocacy, community, and hope. REACH services are offered free of charge or time constraints.
The REACH Center is intended to be a supplement to traditional mental health services, and is not a replacement for medical or clinical services.
We use certified peer support specialists to help support people wanting to experience healing, recovery, and wellness. Peer specialists are people who have experienced mental health or addiction struggles, and are now in recovery. Peers use their experience with mental health recovery to provide hope, support, and inspiration to those looking to recover.
The REACH Center offer self-directed participation in groups, classes, and activities. All groups are facilitated by peers, who draw upon their personal experience to help others reach their personal recovery goals.
We are located on the first floor of the community health building on the Veteran’s Affairs complex
