RPSV's virtual telehealth support groups are making an impact across our community. The free and confidential sessions help participants develop bonds and work toward key recovery goals. The social connectedness that happens in the groups is inspiring to watch! Join any or all of our groups, and please, tell others who can use the support we offer. Thank you!

RPSV's Warm Line has served as a source of comfort for our neighbors in the community since March and has helped individuals who need support. A Warm Line is similar to a hotline, but it's designed to help before a crisis begins. We are here to help. Calls are free and confidential! RPSV Cares!

Special Thanks! RPSV would like to thank its recent grant funders who have helped us sustain our programs during this very trying time. With their help we have been able to avoid laying off any of our personnel during the pandemic. Thank you! We could not do it without you! -Arlington County Layoff Aversion Grant,Alexandria/Arlington Regional Workforce Council, Arlington County Department of Human Services -Community Foundation of Northern Virginia -FairfaxRISE  -Paycheck Protection Plan - Small Business Administration

RPSV's GoFundMe Campaign A Great Success! RPSV's first crowdfunding effort ended on August 15 and netted more than $2,000 for RPSV to support those we serve!

Congratulations to Eric Z. who won the $50 gift card donated by an anonymous donor to encourage participation.
