The Village Recovery Society
Our Mission Statement
The Village Recovery Society is dedicated to providing supportive pathways for individuals overcoming addiction and homelessness in the Comox Valley. Our mission is to foster a safe, structured and substance free environment that empowers our members through stable housing, peer support, and integrated access to essential health and social services, ensuring long-term recovery and community reintegration.

The Village Recovery Society will establish a dedicated sober men's second stage house and integrated transportation service to bridge the gap between treatment and independent living in the Comox Valley.
This project provides a strictly drug-free residence combined with a specialized shuttle program to ensure residents can consistently reach medical, supportive recovery and housing search appointments.
By removing the dual barriers of unstable housing and lack of mobility, we empower men to maintain their sobriety, and secure housing, and healthy connections.
We see on a daily basis, men who manage to get into recovery and treatment, only to relapse to homelessness and drug use, due to the lack of second stage housing.
