We offer groups at Chantilly, Reston, Fairfax-Merrifield, and South County (Alexandria). Each group meets for two hours over 18 consecutive weeks and occurs on one weekday evening per week, usually on Tuesdays, Wednesday, or Thursdays. The start time for each group varies from 6 p.m.-7p.m., based on location.
Orientation
If you are interested in learning more about ADAPT, you are invited to a free walk-in orientation and registration (O&R) session, offered several times per week at various locations throughout the county. You may bring a friend or family member to this informational session. At O&R, you will have an opportunity to ask questions, to learn more about the program and to decide whether you are ready to enroll in the 18-week psychoeducational group. To register for O&R, please call the ADAPT Intake and Registration line at 703-968-4052, TTY 703-324-5706.
