Recovery in Action - 1504 Williamsburg Road Men's Recovery Home

About this Recovery Home

Recovery in Action - 1504 Williamsburg Road is a men's recovery residence in Richmond, Virginia, an independent city with no county attached, in DBHDS Region 4. Recovery in Action operates it, and the state register lists it as certified at Level of Support 2.

A Men's Sober House on the Williamsburg Road Corridor

Williamsburg Road is US Route 60 running east out of Richmond through the Fulton and East End neighborhoods toward Sandston and the airport. It is a working corridor, lined with small businesses, auto shops, restaurants and warehouses, and GRTC bus routes cover it. For a man expected to hold work while he lives in a Level 2 house, being on a bus line that runs past employers is not a small detail.

Who This Richmond Recovery Home Serves

The register names men, LGBTQIA+ residents and veterans as the populations this house is set up for. Listing veterans is a commitment worth checking, because Richmond holds the Central Virginia VA Health Care System, and a house that understands service-connected appointments and benefits paperwork keeps a veteran's treatment and address aligned. This is the operator's only men's residence; its other two houses serve women.

What Virginia Certification Obliges This Sober Living Home to Do

Certification is mandatory for recovery residences in Virginia, and it is granted address by address. This one holds it through VARR at Level of Support 2, the Monitored tier, which means peer-based housing with written rules and a responsible manager, with treatment delivered off site. The obligations are concrete: a published code of ethics, fees and rules disclosed in writing before move-in, a written relapse and discharge policy, and complaint review outside the house. The state's register of certified recovery residences is republished monthly, so any address can be confirmed before an application goes in.

Men's Recovery Housing in Richmond and Region 4

Richmond is Virginia's capital and an independent city, so the circuit and general district courts, the state agencies, Richmond Behavioral Health Authority and the VCU Health campuses all fall inside one jurisdiction. A resident can satisfy a probation obligation, keep a clinic appointment and work a shift in the same week without crossing a county line. Region 4 carries the largest share of the state's certified recovery housing, and the East End sits at its eastern edge with the airport, the distribution centers along Route 60 and Henrico County's employers within reach.
