InnerVisions Recovery Society

What InnerVisions Recovery Society does

InnerVisions Recovery Society is a non-profit addiction treatment organization founded in 1988 by Billy and Kim Weselowsk in Coquitlam, British Columbia. It delivers abstinence-based, 12-Step residential treatment to individuals with substance use disorders, primarily serving the Lower Mainland BC region. Across 29+ years of operation the organization states it has helped tens of thousands of clients.

The organization operates three licensed residential facilities: Miller House (men's, Maple Ridge, originally opened 1991 and rebuilt in 2015), Hannah House (women's, Maple Ridge, opened 2002), and Prairie House (men's, Port Coquitlam, opened 2015). Its core offering is a 60-day residential treatment program followed by up to two years of second-stage housing, providing a structured continuum of care. Adjacent programs include fee-for-service counselling through the InnerChoices partnership, training through InnerStart Training and Education (including a Front Line Worker training program and a Return to Work Program for employers), with all program staff themselves being in recovery.

Revenue is assembled from multiple streams: private beds priced at $250 CDN per day, government funding routed through Fraser Health, charitable donations, and fee-for-service income from InnerChoices. Go-to-market combines self-referral, third-party referrals, and partnerships with employers, unions, and insurance providers. The organization holds the highest accreditation for licensed residential treatment in British Columbia and has been recognized with the Donner Foundation Award for Excellence in Public Policy.
