Building a community of accountability and support
Support Groups for addiction allow people to share their personal experiences. There are groups that can benefit anyone with any type of addiction. Support groups are also helpful for addicted people with co-occurring mental conditions. This shared wisdom and reliance on others for guidance becomes a key component of sustained recovery for many.
Our Support Meetings are valuable for parents and family members affected by a substance abuser to connect with addiction - addiction affects everyone surrounding the substance abuser.
Benefits of attending Support Groups
When it comes to addiction, recovery does not end once you complete a treatment program. According to the National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA), the addiction relapse rate is between 40 to 60%. Because relapse is incredibly common among individuals recovering from addiction, you must learn how to maintain sobriety outside of a recovery center.
One of the most important parts of maintaining long-term sobriety is having a recovery community to receive support and advice. The best way to cultivate one of these communities is to join an addiction recovery support group.
