We host a 2-day family program every 3 weeks for family members to engage fully in the recovery process with education and support.

  • 63% of our patients at American Addiction Centers’ facilities — Recovery First’s parent company — are sober 12 months after treatment. The industry average is 30%. But without the commitment of our patients and alumni to the programs we offer, we wouldn’t have any of it. You and patients just like you help to create a growing recovery community.
