What Is Connect To Recovery and A Way Out Program?
Recovery is more than just sobriety. It’s a lifestyle and a community. One of the most crucial factors in whether you’ll successfully commit to recovery is how well you connect and integrate with the recovery community. It’s important to build a support system out of positive new relationships that help you feel motivated, accountable, and not alone.
Unfortunately, all too often the person who needs this support the most is the one who doesn’t seek it. Addiction is isolating. Feelings of fear, shame, and hopelessness keep people from reaching out, especially when they don’t feel understood by the people around them.

People entering or struggling with recovery could use help from someone who’s been through what they’re going through—someone to listen, offer advice and assistance, and introduce them into a supportive community. That’s exactly what Connect to Recovery is here for.
