Certified Recovery Residences [12 VAC 35 ? 260]
 

VARR is a quasi government agency much like a CSB so VARR board of directors should by law be held to the same ethics CSB board members are required to abide by:

If DBHDS does this then all controversies go away, anyone in DBHDS can contact me and I will explain if you don't understand.

More and most important VARR is the solution for Virginia's un-housed addiction population, currently VARR certified recovery residence operators are saving Virginia taxpayers over a 100 million dollars a year just in correction diversion cost alone, VARR is the best value for our states addiction epidemic. I also believe the life saving value is most paramount and pales in comparison.
