Our Mission
We offer hope, support and advocacy for those seeking recovery so that we can build resilience and thrive in our lives and communities.
Our Vision
We envision a world where we have an abundance of recovery options and are supported in our right to decide our recovery pathway
Strength In Peers is the largest peer-run recovery organization in the Shenandoah Valley, offering a full spectrum of recovery-oriented services. We support individuals facing substance use, mental health, and trauma-related challenges—with a special focus on those experiencing homelessness, reentering the community after incarceration, or living in rural poverty.
Our team of Certified Peer Recovery Specialists, all in active recovery, draw on their lived experiences to guide others toward healing, stability, and hope. Since 2015, we have helped more than 7,000 individuals take steps toward a better life.
Grounded in lived experience, we envision a world where everyone is supported in their right to choose their recovery pathway. Our mission is to offer hope, support, and advocacy for those seeking recovery—so that together we can build resilience and thrive in our lives and communities.
We proudly serve the City of Harrisonburg and the counties of Rockingham, Page, and Shenandoah. Our Harm Reduction program also extends to Waynesboro, Staunton, and Augusta County.
