Veterans face unique challenges that can contribute to substance use disorders, including combat-related trauma, PTSD, traumatic brain injury, chronic pain and the difficulty of transitioning to civilian life. At The Recovery Village Columbus, we provide specialized addiction treatment for veterans and active-duty service members, with programming designed to address the specific experiences and needs of those who have served.
Our facility participates in the VA Community Care Network, allowing eligible veterans to receive treatment at our Groveport, OH campus.
Call (614) 362-1686 to learn about veteran admission options.
VA Community Care Network
The VA Community Care Network (CCN) allows eligible veterans to receive addiction treatment at approved community facilities when VA facilities cannot provide timely or geographically accessible care. The Recovery Village Columbus is approved within the CCN, meaning eligible veterans may receive treatment here with VA-covered benefits.

Our Recovery Advocates are available around the clock to answer your questions, verify your insurance, and help you find the right level of care — at no cost to you.
To access treatment through the CCN, veterans typically need a referral from their VA healthcare provider. Our admissions team can help you understand the process and coordinate with your VA facility.
Veteran-Specific Programming
Our treatment approach for veterans includes trauma-informed care with EMDR and trauma-focused therapies specifically designed for military-related trauma, peer support with other veterans in treatment, treatment for PTSD and co-occurring substance use disorders, chronic pain management strategies that do not rely on addictive medications, transition support for reintegration into civilian routines, and family programming to address the impact of service-related stress on family relationships.
