About First at Blue Ridge
First at Blue Ridge is a residential rehab center in Ridgecrest, North Carolina that's licensed by the state and run as a peer led therapeutic community.
It's built for people with chronic substance use disorders, and its services also cover what often comes with addiction, including losing housing or a job, or a case in the criminal courts.
Men and women live on campus, where 12 step meetings run every day and counselors work with mental health concerns.
I want to note that Veterans have a separate route, since Vets FIRST is funded by the Department of Veterans Affairs and is open to veterans who were not dishonorably discharged.
Program Fees and Scholarships
First at Blue Ridge charges a fee when you're admitted to its long term program. I want to add that scholarships are available for people with financial need.
In some cases the center can arrange a sliding fee or a flexible payment plan, so paying for rehab doesn't have to mean one payment up front.
The Ridgecrest campus is east of Asheville and close to Interstate 40, with 85 beds for men, 65 for women and transitional housing for people who finish the program.
