About St. Joseph Recovery Center

St. Joseph Recovery Center (SJRC), located in Parkersburg, West Virginia, offers programs for veteran and non-veteran adults experiencing substance use disorders. This private entity is the largest provider in West Virginia that assists with addiction treatment services. What I notice most about SJRC is their equine therapy as a way to help you learn healthy trust and connection with others and yourself.

SJRC takes many private insurance plans and in some cases, they accept Medicaid and Medicare. Self-payment and cash options are available. I appreciate that their admissions team provides personalized assistance in exploring your coverage options to maximize your benefits.
