Who We Are

We are a community based peer organization.

Our values, much of our governance, our strategic direction, our programming and everything about SOS Recovery Community Organization is driven by the community and those we serve.  We are made up of a small staff who are here to provide the framework and structure for our community to drive our programs, services and offerings.

Capital C.

We Are An RCO with a Capital C.

Our services are primarily driven and run by our staff and volunteers who are made up of individuals in recovery, family members, friends and loved ones of those in recovery, or those who may be still struggling with substances, as well as allies in the community.  Much like recovery, we are a diverse group with empathy, compassion, and a deep passion for all that we are doing to provide a safe supportive environment for those impacted by substance use.  We have learned that those who use alcohol and other drugs are our parents, brothers, sisters, friends, neighbors, and co-workers and, likewise, the recovery community is represented by all of those at SOS Recovery Community Organization.
