Our Commitment to Recovery: Mission, Vision, and Values
At Federal City Recovery Services, our mission is clear:
To provide a continuum of care for men, women, adolescents, and families facing substance use disorders and mental illnesses.
Since our founding, we have believed that every person deserves access to high-quality, ethical, and respectful care. Rooted in Washington, DC, our vision is to create treatment and recovery environments where all clients can reach their full potential for health and well-being, free from the grip of addiction.
Our Approach: Centered on Clients, Grounded in Community
We live out this mission through our six-part philosophy that guides everything we do:
Client-Centric: Every treatment plan begins and ends with the client’s needs, goals, and lived experience.
Long-Term Recovery: We foster sustainable healing through evidence-based therapies, spiritual and behavioral health frameworks, and peer support.
Integration Services: Recovery doesn’t happen in isolation. Our programs help clients reintegrate into family life, employment, and the broader community.
Expectations and Evaluations: We invite clients to hold us accountable. We welcome feedback, promote shared ownership of outcomes, and pursue continuous improvement.
No Nonsense: Our clinical and administrative teams uphold clear, respectful standards to create safe, structured healing environments.
Tailored Care: Every individual receives a customized, person-centered care plan—designed in partnership—to reflect their journey and goals.
With over 27 years of experience, this model has helped thousands regain stability, dignity, and direction
Our Ideology: How We Create Change
Three core principles define our service philosophy:
1. Communicate the Issue: We educate the public on the true impact of addiction and provide critical information to reduce stigma, promote prevention, and increase access to life-saving interventions.
2. Support Without Discrimination: We offer care without judgment or exclusion—welcoming the homeless, former offenders, and those historically underserved. Our team also works alongside families and caregivers to ensure lasting support.
3. Prepare the Recovered: We equip clients with the skills, training, and resources they need to find employment, rebuild their lives, and stay engaged in long-term recovery. Reintegration—not just treatment—is our goal.
