“The West Hollywood Recovery Center is so much more than a place where I go to meetings. It’s my recovery home. Every meeting I attend is here, and these rooms have become such an important part of my life and my sobriety.

This is where I come when life is good, when life is hard, when I need to get out of my own head, or when I simply need to be around people who understand. I’ve laughed, cried, shared honestly, listened, learned and grown here. I’ve sponsored men, done service, built incredible friendships and found a community that reminds me I never have to do this alone.

What I love most is that there is always a seat for you. Whether you have one day or decades, you belong. You can walk through those doors exactly as you are and find people who will welcome you and remind you to keep coming back.

I’m incredibly grateful for this place, this community, and the gift of having somewhere I’m proud to call my recovery home.”
