There's No Place Like Hope
Recovery Groups are weekly meetings for individuals and families impacted by addiction. Providing hope, connection, accountability, and empowerment, groups promote sustainable recovery through long-term support.



Why Groupwork Matters?
Groupwork is a powerful and cost-effective approach to recovery, allowing multiple people to benefit simultaneously.
Well-run groups harness the power of culture to reinforce healthy norms and motivate positive change.
Groups help members escape the isolation of addiction by providing a space to experience acceptance and empathy.
Groups are also a valuable source of accountability and wise counsel, which is essential for long-term, sustainable recovery.

Understanding the Nature of Recovery Groups
Addiction and Supporter Recovery
Groups are open to anyone seeking recovery - whether from addiction or the impact of a loved one’s addiction.
Open and
Accessible
Groups are free and mostly open to the public, with public groups are listed in our online group locator.

Centralised and
Inclusive
All addictions share core similarities, enabling substance and process disorders to be addressed in centralised groups.
Long-term
Membership
Belonging in groups is ongoing. Long-standing members often grow into service and leadership roles.

We believe in the culture of recovery
The culture of recovery is represented by a healthy set of values, beliefs, and behaviours that normalise and encourage life-affirming patterns. This is as opposed to the culture of addiction that sustains self-defeating patterns through a set of unhealthy values, beliefs, and behaviours.
