ABOUT US
A Recovery Place (ARP) is a non-profit organization founded in 2003 with the mission of connecting the recovery community of South Texas with resources, services, and each other. Since our doors first opened, we have been dedicated to providing a safe and supportive environment for individuals in recovery to come together and build a sense of community.
Our mission is built on three core values:
Community, Resources, & Services
Connecting the Recovery Community
We strive to bring together individuals in recovery and provide them with a safe and supportive environment to build a sense of community. By fostering connections within the recovery community, we believe that individuals can find support and encouragement from one another, which can be crucial in maintaining their recovery journey.
Providing Resources
We understand that recovery is not just about the individual but also about providing the right resources to help them succeed.
We provide rental space for 12-step meetings, which can be an important tool for individuals in recovery, as well as a place where people can come together to support one another.
Connecting People With Services
We believe that connecting people with the right services is key to their recovery journey. Our organization works with other organizations and service providers in the area to make sure that people have access to the services they need to succeed in their recovery.
Recovery coaches work with clients one on one not only to help them discover recovery but also to help them discover various resources the city has to offer.
