An Alternative Peer Group provides a new group of friends with alternative attitudes, values, judgements, processes and behaviors that support the change necessary for recovery.
Research shows that adolescents are far more likely to relapse when experiencing social pressure than adults. This is a safe place for teens 13 to 17 years old to collaborate and to create a new sober life.
Fun is an important element in our program and helps teens build lasting, healthy friendships.
Members can define their activities, but they may include hiking, weekend excursions, concerts, gym time, fitness/yoga, classes/education, art/music, dinners with peers, community service and skills building exercises.
