All-Recovery Support Meetings - Portland & Augusta
All Recovery Support meetings welcome people from every addiction recovery pathway as we believe we have much in common and can help one another. These meetings offer a safe place to share about addiction recovery experiences; where the hope and healing of recovery is emphasized; and we talk about how recovery has changed our lives, regardless of the substance or behavior that is at the root of our addiction. Meetings are free of charge.
