Virginia Dept. of Corrections' "Recovery is Possible" Video Produced through OAA Award

The Virginia Department of Corrections (VADOC) has produced a video titled “Recovery is Possible” through an award from the OAA. “Recovery is Possible” is intended to encourage recovery for all people under the care of VADOC. For all new intakes into VADOC correctional facilities, it will be required viewing.

This video emphasizes the nature of addiction as a treatable disease and highlights pathways to recovery available within the VADOC. It features inspirational testimonials and educational content from incarcerated Peer Recovery Specialists, VADOC staff, and supporters from communities around Virginia. It is VADOC’s hope that those who see this production will be inspired to use the tools available to them to engage in the journey of recovery from addiction. “Recovery is Possible” is a presentation of the Virginia Department of Corrections. It was produced by Bookend Creative. Full funding support for this project was provided by the Virginia Opioid Abatement Authority.
