Did you know? Over 25,000 people walk through our doors every year to find hope through recovery classes, peer support, counseling, groceries, sober living resources, and community events.

It’s the Season of Giving, and we are asking to choose hope, invest in healing, and change the story for someone who feels alone in their struggle. 💙

At Better Life in Recovery, every dollar helps us bring connection, community, and life-changing support to individuals and families walking the road of recovery. Your generosity makes recovery visible — and possible.

If our mission has impacted you or someone you love, we’d be honored if you’d consider giving today.

Together, we can build a community where recovery thrives. 🙌
