Recovery Community

Download brochure in PDF

People seeking or in long-term recovery, their families and loved ones have a growing number of mutual aid groups to choose to participate in. Some of these groups are online and others hold in-person/face-to-face meetings in communities across the country. Helping others as part of a mutual aid group is an important way that many people have found to sustain their personal long-term recovery.

In addition to the groups that you can search, there are mutual aid opportunities for doctors, lawyers, nurses, anesthesiologists and other professionals seeking or in recovery and their families. There are also employee-based assistance programs for professions such as lawyers assistance programs and nurses assistance programs that are not listed here.
