Valor Program
Valor Program
Veterans and first responders have unique needs in substance use treatment. Our Valor program provides specialized, trauma-focused care for clients struggling with drug and alcohol abuse after military service or because of the daily stress and danger of their job as first responders.
In our Valor program, you’ll receive evidence-based treatment from professionals trained to address the emotional and behavioral challenges of veterans and first responders. You’ll recover in a safe, accepting space alongside peers who have a firsthand understanding of what you’re going through. You’ll learn that trauma and substance abuse is a response to excessive stress, how to manage PTSD symptoms, stop using drugs and alcohol to self-medicate, and adopt healthy coping skills that help you move forward.

Our Veterans Program
Whether it stems from the transition back into life after service or after a tour of duty in a combat zone, 1 in 15 veterans struggle with alcohol and drug abuse. More than 76% of veterans with substance use problems meet the criteria for co-occurring mental health disorders as well.
Veterans have unique substance use treatment needs that are best treated with specialized care in an environment with other veterans and first responders. That’s why Vogue Recovery Center and Footprints to Recovery developed the Valor program, which offers trauma-focused, evidence-based treatment for veterans and first responders.
Our alcohol and drug rehab program for veterans includes:

- Scheduling appointments with therapist, physicians, psychiatrists, and other providers.
- Connecting you with 12-step groups and other community groups
