Valley Community Services Board

Valley Community Services Board offers substance use treatment and an opioid treatment program in Staunton, Virginia that helps adults and adolescents.

They have outpatient care here with medications for opioid and alcohol use disorders and counseling. They also have recovery supports like housing services and naloxone education.

Its structure involves pricing and access tied to a defined area to help the community receive addiction treatment without a hassle.

Sliding Scale Fees

The center provides care on a sliding payment scale that tailors its fees to the financial situation of people who live in Staunton, Waynesboro, Augusta County or Highland County.

They accept Medicare, Medicaid and TRICARE along with private insurance and federal or government funding which makes the center a safety net provider.

Keep in mind that the low fees are for people in this particular service area. Looking for care outside your assigned area means you pay the full fee and lose eligibility for financial assistance, so your residency determines your costs.

For someone in the Staunton area without strong insurance this center is often the affordable entry point.

Office Based Opioid Treatment

The center has office based opioid treatment and prescribes buprenorphine and naltrexone for opioid and alcohol use disorders. These can help with addictions to heroin, fentanyl and prescription painkillers.

This medical function is inside a broader public mental health system rather than a standalone clinic.

The treatment difference is in their referral process. The team performs substance use assessments for court ordered, VASAP referred and probation referred clients.

They can also connect you to medical care through case management.

Someone who has a legal mandate in Augusta County can complete their evaluation and begin medication treatment through the same agency instead of coordinating across separate providers.
