Addiction Resources During COVID-19

June 1, 2020

Under the governor’s Stay Home, Stay Healthy order, many parts of our lives have been put on hold, postponed or cancelled. For people that struggle with addiction, this has been an incredibly difficult period as many if not all in-person support groups have been cancelled. 

However, there are resources available including online virtual support meetings. American Addiction Centers are hosting free online virtual 12-step AA/NA support meetings weekly: https://americanaddictioncenters.org/virtual-meetings. These sessions are based on traditional 12-step meetings, hosted by a person in recovery, and topics or meeting types vary based on the group’s preference. 

Be proactive in your recovery and seek out the resources and supports you need to remain in recovery.
