What is a Recovery Community Organization (RCO)?

Recovery Community Organizations are independent, non-profit organizations led and governed by people in recovery. While each organization may have a mission that addresses the particular needs and concerns of its local community, all focus on the following core purpose:


Education & Training

Recovery Support

Advocacy & Activism


Recovery Community Organizations have been forming around our country and state over the past several years, bringing the successful stories of our neighbors getting well in our neighborhoods. This is the movement that is driving our communities to support the important work we are doing to stay well.
