Connecticut Community For Addiction Recovery

The Connecticut Community for Addiction Recovery (CCAR) envisions a world where the power, hope and healing of recovery from alcohol and other drug addiction is thoroughly understood and embraced.

CCAR is a centralized resource in CT for all things recovery. Whether you are contemplating a life in recovery, are new to recovery or are in long term recovery, CCAR is here to help you to navigate the recovery community, by connecting you with others in recovery and providing access to area support services.

Living in recovery from alcohol and other drugs is a never ending journey, and wherever you are in that journey, CCAR is here to help you meet your recovery goals.

CCAR RECOVERY COMMUNITY CENTERS

As restrictions related to the public health crisis ease here in Connecticut, on June 6, 2020 we will begin re-opening our Recovery Community Centers. We will re-open with limited hours, services, and capacity. We encourage you to call your center for more info on the specific guidelines and offerings for each location.

A Recovery Community Center (RCC) is a recovery oriented sanctuary anchored in the heart of the community.

Telephone Recovery Support

CCAR provides Telephone Recovery Support (TRS) an innovative peer-to-peer support service. TRS offers weekly telephone calls to people in recovery to “check in” and see how they’re doing. Recoverees are given support and encouragement as well as information about community resources, 12-step meetings or other supports that may help them maintain their recovery. Calls are made by trained CCAR volunteers that are, in many instances, in recovery themselves. TRS is offered at all CCAR Recovery Community Centers (RCC).
