Our core mission is to mobilize resources within and outside the recovery community to increase long-term recovery from alcohol and drug addictions. The recovery community includes people in recovery, their families and friends, allies and organizations whose members reflect religious, spiritual and secular pathways to recovery.  Our goals are to increase the quality and quantity of support for those dealing with addiction and recovery.
