Central Virginia Addiction & Recovery Resources Coalition

The Central Virginia Addiction & Recovery Resources Coalition, CVARR, was created to help foster a community-wide approach to stop addiction and promote recovery and healthy lifestyles across the central Virginia Region. Our goal is to connect people with the resources they need to find their own path to treatment and recovery.

CVARR believes in the power of collaborative problem solving and grassroots efforts to solve our community’s substance use challenges. By bringing organizations and citizens from different sectors together, CVARR helps our community maximize resources, support, and solutions.

As parents, we love our children like no one else can. Our children will have many friendships throughout their lives. It is our role to be a parent, not a friend.   We have the RESPONSIBILITY of showing our children we care by guiding them, setting expectations, and enforcing consequences to help protect them from danger. As parents, we also have the RIGHT to ensure safety by limiting freedoms, restricting privileges, and searching their belongings (such as cell phones, cars, and bedrooms) when necessary. 
 
Setting EXPECTATIONS and enforcing CONSEQUENCES as parents includes praising positive behaviors, encouraging our children in their pursuits, acknowledging their achievements, and ensuring that discipline is structured, consistent, predictable, and fair. Our children may not thank us now, but they will in the future.   These things are paramount as our children realize that we were there to provide safety and security, equipping them to handle challenges, all while patiently loving them.
