About New River Valley Community Services – New Horizons – Fairlawn
Located in Radford, Virginia is the New River Valley Community Services New Horizons facility. This is a crisis stabilization unit that serves both men and women who are experiencing acute mental health issues. They can also support you if your crisis exists alongside substance abuse or chemical dependency.
This facility offers a supportive environment to stabilize your body. It’s not a large scale facility, but rather a smaller size center that offers more personalized care.
This facility is open 24 hours a day and operates under New Review Community Services, an organization that provides comprehensive treatment for adults navigating an addiction dependency.
New River Community Services has different programs in place to support residents from all backgrounds including those involved in the criminal justice system. There’s a service here called the New River Valley Crisis Intervention team which deploys when individuals call local police because of a mental health crisis.
Acting as a jail diversion service, this program has successfully helped juveniles and adults receive appropriate treatment as opposed to traditional incarceration.
There are other programs here for court involved individuals including recovery court services and treatment tracks that address the needs of families as well.
Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is available through New Horizons and the New River Valley Community Services organization. You’ll be enrolled in an outpatient program or receiving services through one of their other programs to start MAT.
As you work through MAT, you’ll also be involved in different support groups that meet weekly. Among the support groups available are the Suboxone group, a women’s circle, and a skills development group.
