Very often the addict feels that they are the only person in the world
to have this problem and to do the things they have done. Through listening
to others with similar problems, the addict and co-addict begin to realize
they are not alone and there are solutions. Through sharing about one’s
own experience, strength and hope in the addiction and recovery process,
the addict is beginning to participate in the fellowship of the group.
This will lead to the making of connections with others which will boost
self confidence. In addition, recovery can be enhanced by taking on service
roles which involve serving others.
Click on the titles below for specific recovery programs that match your
issues and needs. Phone numbers, as well as postal and email addresses
are provided. You will probably be sent some literature if you write. If
you call, you will probably get a recording asking you to leave your first
name and number, and someone will call you back anonymously. By emailing
you most likely will get some standard information or maybe a personal response.
After several of the listings, you can click on the website address and
go directly to the organization’s homepage for specific information

locations and times.
