Social Support
The Key is Finding What Works for You!
Studies have indicated that participation in social support can help you be successful in overcoming addiction. In order to make a strong connection with any support group, you must be able to connect with the philosophy and model of recovery that group offers. In other words, it must make sense, feel right, and be a source of motivation. You have a choice! We encourage you to explore these organizations with an open mind and focus your attention on those that align with your beliefs and values.

Addiction and Recovery Education
The journey of healing from addiction does not follow a rigid set of directions or rules. It is unique for every person and is based on the truth that they are the expert of their own life. At Adirondack Recovery Care, we believe that education focusing on the connectedness of the physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, social and environmental practices in each person's life is a tremendously effective vehicle offering safe transport over the often slippery and rocky road to recovery. We invite you to explore these educational resources presented by some of today's most expert thought leaders on addiction and hope they will inspire conversation, help bring you to clarity, and assist you in reaching your destination.
