GLEN ALLEN, Va. — State Sen. Siobhan Dunnavant (R-Henrico) attended Aware Recovery's open house in Glen Allen Wednesday to talk about the toll addiction is taking on some Virginians.

“We have a much greater need and a much greater crisis than we have the ability to manage in Virginia.” Aware Recovery CEO Brian Holzer said. “Historically recovery success with traditional methods have seen around a 10% success rate.”

Holzer said Aware Recovery, which has centers in 10 states, has increased that recovery success rate with their peer-to-peer coaching model.
