Virtual Recovery Community Center ยท Des Moines, Iowa

Recovery is a place you can walk into.

The VRCC isn't a form to fill out โ€” it's a virtual community you explore like a building. Step inside to check in on how you're really doing, sit in a circle, find verified Iowa resources, celebrate milestones, and talk to Grace any hour of the day.

A building, not an app

Walk a lobby and a hallway, then open doors to rooms that each do something real โ€” no menus to decode.

๐Ÿชž

Daily check-in

A thirty-second pulse on how you're arriving today. Honest, private, and visible to the team that supports you.

๐Ÿ’ฌ

Safe chat rooms

Ten moderated spaces to connect โ€” Open Circle, Justice Journeys, Women's and Men's, and more. Anonymous if you want.

๐ŸŒŸ

Walls of Honor

Celebrate milestones, honor those we've lost with dignity, and share what you're grateful for.

โœจ

Grace, your companion

An AI companion that's always here and always labeled as AI โ€” and always one tap away from a real person.

๐Ÿงญ

Resource navigation

Verified Iowa help for housing, food, work, healthcare, and legal needs โ€” warm referrals, never just a phone number.

The lights are on. Come in when you're ready.

Connection prevents crisis. A place โ€” not an app.
