Hanover County Comm Services Board Ashland

Hanover County Comm Services Board Ashland is a public behavioral health agency, not a private for-profit program. At its Ashland site, staff provide outpatient addiction treatment and mental health care, often for people facing both at once. Each person gets a plan shaped around their own diagnosis and circumstances, so the schedule reflects the individual rather than one fixed routine.

Outpatient addiction treatment at this Virginia center lets people stay home during care. That means someone can keep a job, stay in school, or care for family while attending sessions. Group and family therapy add a social side, so people practice new habits alongside others rather than working alone.

The address is 12300 Washington Highway in Ashland, in Hanover County north of Richmond. Because it is a county board, the program sits inside the local service system, and counselors can link people to outpatient follow-up and support meetings after the main course of care ends.
