VARR affirms the necessity of a continuum of care to adequately address the total needs of the addicted community, of which housing is a large component in the continuum. VARR manages the disbursement of its subrecipient funding grant contract agreements to its secondary subrecipients through a process of application to receive the funds that are passed from the Federal agencies to the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health Development Services (DBHDS) and ultimately to the secondary subrecipients. The cloud software that is used to manage this process is called ARMS (Advanced Recovery Management System) and was funded by the Virginia State Opioid Response Grant. ARMS will track through its software platform available indigent beds and resident status in each Recovery Residence or Recovery Community Organization, as applicable. VARR management also will conduct random visits to the Recovery Residences or Recovery Community Organizations to verify existence of the facility and beds maintained. ARMS allows VARR management to efficiently implement recovery support services that promote resident transition from active addiction to healthy, pro-social networks. This process starts in a residential peer community and extends forward to include the local recovery and at-large communities. Each component of the system is built on research and best-practices developed by the academic community over the last 50 years.
