Introducing SMART Recovery

SMART Recovery represents a refreshing approach to the journey of addiction recovery. The acronym SMART stands for Self-Management and Recovery Training, but it goes beyond mere letters; it embodies a transformative methodology for transitioning away from addictive substances and negative behaviors toward a life characterized by positive self-esteem and a readiness for change.

Countless individuals grapple with feelings of powerlessness over their own lives, often burdened by a sense of hopelessness, fearing they are trapped in the cycle of addiction with no way out. SMART Recovery equips them with the essential skills necessary to conquer their addictions and reshape their destinies.

Originally conceived for those in search of a self-empowered route to overcome addiction-related challenges, SMART Recovery has evolved into an accessible recovery approach rooted in scientific principles, validated by over a quarter-century of experience in imparting practical tools that foster enduring transformation.

SMART Recovery comprises a dynamic recovery community that includes dedicated volunteers who have successfully navigated their own recovery journeys with SMART and are impassioned about extending their assistance to others. By bringing together peers and professionals, SMART fuses scientific knowledge with lived experience to help individuals construct healthier, well-rounded lives.

Through our collaborative support meetings, available both online and in person, participants devise and execute their personalized recovery plans, aimed at cultivating lives that are more balanced, purposeful, fulfilling, and meaningful. SMART also offers tailored meetings and resources designed to cater to diverse communities, including Family & Friends, veterans, and more.

The track record of SMART Recovery speaks volumes. Whether an individual has chosen this path to recovery or has been mandated to attend a recovery program, SMART paves the way to a Life Beyond Addiction.
