Long Term Program at a Glance
A Structured Residential Program for Lasting Recovery
The Long Term Program at FIRST at Blue Ridge provides a structured residential recovery environment for individuals who need time, accountability, and support to rebuild stability. Residents participate in recovery-focused groups, self-improvement classes, 12-step meetings, daily responsibilities, and vocational preparedness while living in a supportive peer community.
The program is designed to remain accessible, with a nominal initial entry fee of $275. After admission, Long Term residents participate in vocational assignments either through FIRST at Blue Ridge internal work crews or with one of our vocational training partners. This model helps support the cost of the program while giving residents the opportunity to build work habits, responsibility, confidence, and real-world job readiness.
