Alano Club of Portland

Alano Club of Portland A welcome, compassionate and accessible recovery center!

The Alano Club of Portland has been a leading source of recovery support in our community for 60 years and counting. In addition to over 100 weekly mutual aid support meetings, the Alano Club offers other recovery resources, like weekly recovery yoga and mindful meditation classes, monthly seminars on topics like brain chemistry and addiction, relationships in recovery, and regular workshops on topics ranging from recovery advocacy to mindful-based relapse prevention. The Alano Club also hosts large-scale sober social events, like our Recovery Art Walk, Recovery Talent Show and holiday community dinners. What We Do:
By owning and operating a beautiful, historic community center that hosts the largest and most diverse offering of mutual-aid support meetings and recovery services in Oregon, the Alano Club of Portland is able to bring healing, hope and solutions to more than 10,000 visitors each month. There’s no other recovery support center of its kind in the area, where recovering individuals can go—free of charge—to receive the level of life-long support they need in their journey to addiction recovery. Ours is a safe, loving and inviting home for more than 100 weekly recovery support meetings, recovery seminars and workshops, yoga and meditation classes, sobriety-based social events, information and referral services for treatment resources, and holiday celebrations for the recovery community. Who We Help
We serve thousands of recovering men, women and families across 20 distinct mutual aid programs, including Alcoholics Anonymous, Al-Anon family groups, Gamblers Anonymous, Food Addicts Anonymous, Wellbriety, Refuge Recovery and nearly everything in between!

How do stories shape our understanding of ourselves? Is it possible to use storytelling techniques to challenge those accepted truths and bring about positive transformation? Join Carly Schwartz, author of the recently-published memoir I’ll Try Anything Twice: Misadventures of a Self-Medicated Life, for an interactive evening of connection and exploration. In this 90-minute session, an offshoot of Carly’s Mindwriters workshop series, you’ll identify stories that no longer serve you, find narrative threads that shift your understanding of yourself, and use that new perspective to think about how to make meaningful changes in your life. Inspired by narrative therapy philosophies and techniques, this workshop includes guided free-writing exercises and opportunities to share and reflect in a safe container. Please bring a pen, paper, and an openness to explore your inner world and your perception of yourself.
