Why certify our recovery residence?
Recovery residence certification
- Certification offers legitimacy as an associate of a statewide organization with quality standards
- Offers providers a blueprint to best practices and the ability to legitimize themselves in the marketplace
- Informs community-wide asset mapping and recovery-oriented system of care strategic planning
- Promotes resident’s rights with a grievance process
LARR Certification is a consultative process. It begins with a thorough review of the NARR Standard by the prospective applicant. Parties who desire to voluntary submit for certification to this Standard may apply online by selecting the “Apply Now” navigation button at the bottom of this page. The dynamic online application form poses specific questions based on answers to preliminary inquiries regarding number of locations and support level(s) offered by the applicant organization.
LARR is not a licensing authority, nor are we the “recovery residence police”. Our mission is to promote quality recovery housing through provider compliance with the National Standard. Our certification team is comprised of trained administrative & field personnel. Through open and transparent collaboration, LARR personnel guide applicant owners, managers and staff to achieve the Standard. The duration of the certification process varies significantly based on provider preparedness, motivation and experience. The objective for both parties is to achieve successful certification. Assuming this shared objective, LARR Certification maintains unwavering integrity by ensuring providers continue to demonstrate compliance with the NARR Standard and LARR Code of Ethics.
When you are ready go to www.larronline.org and click “Apply for Certification” located under the “Certification” navigation tab. The fee schedule, required documents checklist, and sample inspection report are available here in order to help you better prepare yourself.
