ing's that use a Positive Peer Approach to help those seeking Recovery find their true meaning and purpose in life. Taking Back Ohio was started by a few close friends in recovery at the Sandusky Artisans Recovery Community Center in 2014 and welcomes anyone and everyone seeking Recovery from Mental Health challenges or substance use disorder as well as any supporters. This meeting is unlike any other recovery meeting that you have ever gone to!
>Taking Back Ohio is not a twelve-step meeting, nor is it faith based. We welcome those utilizing MAT as a way of achieving Recovery from SUD and all pathways to Recovery. The group chose for the meeting to be like this so that anyone from the outside who had skepticism or fear related to going to a recovery meeting would feel open to try this out! If you are considering living FREE from the bonds of addiction - YOU are welcome here.

Let’s goooo 👊🔥

Help us celebrate Mark and his latest recovery milestone… 60 DAYS of continuous recovery!! 💙

We had the honor of celebrating Mark at Monday night’s Taking Back Ohio meeting at the Erie County Health Department—and moments like this are exactly why we do what we do.

60 days is no small thing. It’s commitment. It’s showing up. It’s pushing through the hard days and choosing recovery one day at a time. And we see you, Mark. We’re proud of you. 👊

This is what happens when people come together, support one another, and refuse to do this alone.

This is Ohioans thriving in recovery.

BUBBA IS BACK!! 👊🐾💙

On March 30th, Bubba completed his final physical therapy session—and let’s just say…he CRUSHED IT!! 💪

Now if you know Bubba…you know this is a big deal 😂
This guy doesn’t even like walking through wet grass (tippie toes and all)…and here he is getting in the therapy pool like an absolute CHAMP 🐶💦

We are beyond grateful for his amazing therapist Shannon and the entire team at Animal Clinic Northview in North Ridgeville. The care, patience, and love they showed Bubba throughout this process means more than we can put into words 💙

Because of them…Bubba is back doing what he does best 👇

🐾 Showing up for our community
🐾 Bringing comfort, connection, and smiles
🐾 Being a part of so many recovery journeys

You can catch Bubba back in action at:
👉 TBO Open Meetings (Mon, Tues, Wed nights)
👉 CLOSED groups at Erie County Health Department Detox & Kaptur Recovery (Thurs & Sun afternoons)

Thank you to everyone who checked in, supported, and cheered him on along the way. It truly takes a community 👊💜

Our Story

Taking Back Ohio is an APG (Alternative Peer Group) meeting that was started by a few close friends in recovery. This meeting is unlike any other recovery meeting that you have ever gone to! Taking Back Ohio is not a twelve-step meeting, nor is it faith based. The group chose for the meeting to be like this so that anyone from the outside who had skepticism or fear related to going to a recovery meeting would feel open to try this out! We would love for you to come see us anytime - we are in action at 138 East Market Street in Sandusky, Ohio every Wednesday evening from 5:00pm-6:00pm.
