Alcoholics Anonymous (Pierre Only)
If you are experiencing substance use disorder (SUD), we invite you to join us each week in a confidential setting to share your experience and support other group members on your journey to recovery. Alcoholics Anonymous follows a 12-step program focusing on actions that guide members through their recovery journey by taking aim at admitting powerlessness over alcohol, seeking support, and making amends. Through sharing your lived experience, the goal is to achieve and maintain sobriety while helping others. This group will operate on the principle of anonymity, emphasizing confidentiality within the group to create a safe and non- judgmental environment for individuals seeking help. The group is an open yet confidential group. Anyone is welcome. No sign-up is necessary.
