What People Say About Us

I began attending the Merrifield Peer Resource Center (MPRC) as a peer in 2015. I became a volunteer at the MPRC in July 2017 and I assisted staff and guests there. My work gave me the confidence and the experience to apply for a job at Fairfax County. I was hired in October 2017 as a Peer Recovery Specialist at Emergency Services in the same building, as the center.

A.D.G

The center is a good place. It keeps a few people from getting in trouble, and they give snacks and food for those who don’t have.

J.N

I like the service that this center provides for us. We thank God for all that he has done for us. I’m so grateful that I have somewhere to go. I thank the staff for everything that they do and I will remain coming here.
