VIPAR focuses upon expanding access, removing barriers and promoting Recovery-Oriented Services for those experiencing issues with substance use (SUD) and co-occurring mental disorders.

We believe Recovery-Oriented Services should be available to all people seeking to initiate, sustain or enhance their recovery regardless of their ability to pay or insurance coverage.

We believe people experiencing issues with substance use and addiction are not broken and always have the
capacity to recover and improve their lives, especially when they receive Recovery-Oriented Services.

We believe people are experts in their own lives and their preferences should always direct the care they receive regardless of their substance use, stage of change, distress or impairment.
