At Victory Addiction Recovery Center, we deeply honor your service and understand the unique struggles veterans face, such as PTSD, depression, and substance abuse.

Tactical Recovery is Our Veteran-Ready Program

We understand the long-lasting effects that military service has on both the men and women who have served. Stress, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), military sexual trauma (MST) and substance abuse rates have climbed in recent years. We are honored to partner with the Department of Veterans Affairs Community Care Network and PsychArmor as a Veteran-Ready program providing a full continuum of care to our nation’s Veterans.

The primary goal of treatment is to educate, support, and provide assistance to clients for lasting recovery. Victory has a multi-disciplinary team ready to help clients understand and cope with the issues specific to veterans and work on underlying challenges that will help bring about long-term recovery. Our addictionologist and clinicians will address the substance abuse issues as well as co-occurring conditions the individual may suffer from. Updates on progress will be provided to the Veteran’s care team as preferred, along with collaborative discharge planning to promote optimal outcomes for each individual Veteran and their unique experience.
