OUR MISSION
RECOVERY RESIDENCES
Recovery Community
​
Our first recovery residence will open its doors in 2025. Nestled in the heart of Norfolk, Virginia, Hazel House is a 12-bed peer led recovery residence for both veteran and civilian individuals in recovery from mental illness and substance use disorders. We believe that with a caring and warm environment, structured and consciously curated transformational biopsychosocial-spiritual mental health care and access to the right resources, people can become empowered by their own abilities and gain the confidence to fulfill their potential.
MENTAL HEALTH RECOVERY AND SUICIDE EDUCATION AND PREVENTION
