School for Recovery 

Do you have a skill, hobby, or talent that you would like to teach others? Here's your chance to join us to facilitate a virtual class or workshop at the School for Recovery! The School for Recovery desires to offer classes to holistically support the journeys of each member at the Recovery Cafe. Class topics can range from health/wellness, nutrition, yoga, spirituality, job/career preparation, healthy relationships, relapse prevention and more! This is a great way to give back and spread knowledge within our community. If any members are interested in leading a class in School for Recovery, please reach out to us!

We are developing a new program focused on Nutrition and Culinary skills. If you would take a few minutes to complete our survey, we would greatly appreciate our input.
