Each day in recovery is a step in the right direction

Recovery Advocates of America

MISSION STATEMENT

Recovery Advocates of America is a 501C3 not for profit peer-based recovery program providing substance use interventions and navigation to resources for the treatment of substance use disorders (SUD). Our mission is to educate our community about SUD and reduce the stigma towards it, provide compassionate and professional treatment placement for those afflicted by SUD, and offer experienced aftercare support that leads to sustainable recovery from SUD. These disorders cause damage and trauma, not just in the substance user, but also in the lives of their loved ones. We provide tools and resources for the friends and family to begin their healing process and support a healthy living environment post treatment. Our goal is to make treatment services for SUD accessible to all and to provide a platform and network for those who strive for recovery to achieve it.
