Not sure where to begin? A peer recovery specialist can help you or a loved one take the next step, often free or low cost.
Connecting with a group of recovery peers — whether in person or online — can play a vital role in sustaining long-term recovery. Most recovery support group meetings offer a space that advances emotional support, shared understanding, practical insights, and a strong sense of community. They also create opportunities to share information, ideas, and perspectives about treatment programs, recovery tools, and other resources.
Recovery support groups vary widely in their foundation and focus — including faith-based, secular, LGBTQ, family, veterans, and more. Attending a variety of meetings could be a way to discover what pathway(s) work for you.
Several groups provide hotlines, helplines, peer lines, online forums, or chat options so that individuals can stay connected between meetings.
