Center Services
PRS Recovery Academy is located at 3026 Javier Road, Fairfax, VA.
Based on the structure of a community college, the Recovery Academy is designed to: provide targeted psycho-educational curriculum in 12 week blocks; be a normalizing environment so that each client can focus on his recovery goals and identify as a student in recovery; and, most importantly, promote movement out of PRS’ facility-based programming and into meaningful community alternatives such as work, volunteering and school.
The course catalog includes over 40 class offerings, such as Anger Management, Anxiety Management, Coping Skills, Introduction to Recovery, Job Talk, Nutrition, Thinking Skills for Work, Let’s Get Moving, Grief and Loss as it Relates to Mental Illness, Spirituality, Money Management, Reaching Residential Success, Social Skills, Stress Management and Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP).
The Recovery Academy is a day program, and clients generally attend between 3-5 hours a day, 3-5 days a week.
