ATTEND A GROUP!

Members and staff offer a wide variety of peer-led support groups such as Morning Check-in, All Recovery, and other recovery-oriented meetings. Individuals can choose to participate at whatever level is right for them. Community Meetings are held once a week to gather input from members and promote peer-led discussion and support.

VOLUNTEER!

Peers are encouraged to become a member by completing the orientation process and filling out a member application. Members may choose to be involved in several ways, including recovery coaching, event planning, community outreach, and peer-led activities. Volunteering allows individuals to give back by helping others and empowers them to create a safe place that supports recovery, promotes wellness, and addresses the needs and interests of the peer recovery support center’s membership.
