RECOVERY MEETINGS & SUPPORT
Recovery is a process that continues long after treatment ends. A network of peer support is an essential resource for those who are trying to maintain sobriety and rebuild a life that has been damaged by addiction. Find a group and a program that feels comfortable and meets the needs of your recovery. All programs are free and open to the public on a walk-in basis unless otherwise noted. This information has been updated as of September 2023. Some agencies may be offering virtual meetings in place of or in addition to their regularly scheduled in-person meetings. Please confirm meetings times and locations before attending as schedules may be subject to change.
