Recovery and Prevention

SMART Recovery is an evidence-based recovery program that helps individuals build and maintain a healthy, balanced life free from addictive behaviors. Unlike traditional 12-step programs, SMART Recovery is self-empowering and focuses on practical tools grounded in science and research
The program supports individuals dealing with substance use and other addictive behaviors by teaching skills that strengthen motivation, manage cravings, regulate emotions, and improve problem-solving.
SMART Recovery is open to teens and adults and welcomes individuals at any stage of change- whether they are seeking to reduce harmful behaviors or achieve long-term abstinence. This program also offers resources for family members and friends who are supporting a loved one in recovery.
SMART Recovery meetings are facilitated, discussion-based, and non-judgmental. Participants are encouraged to share experinces, learn from one another, and practice tools they can apply in everyday life. The program emphasizes personal choice, responsibility, and self-direction, allowing individuals to decide what recovery means for them.
