The Challenge
Recovery takes time and support.
Recovery Café Longmont supports adults as they rebuild their lives and recover from substance use disorder, mental health challenges, trauma, and other life challenges. We strive to stand in the gap between crisis and stability by fostering community-building and life-empowerment.
We Recover Together
Recovery Café helps members become the best version of themselves.
Our members are welcomed into a free community that focuses on building long-term mental and physical health as well as maintaining sobriety. Weekly Recovery Circles, School for Recovery Classes, and shared meals provide a framework of stability, accountability, and community ties for all individuals seeking freedom and fulfillment. Together, we are reclaiming our lives as people worthy of giving and receiving love.
