Long-Term Recovery

Your addiction recovery doesn’t have to stop at outpatient rehab. There are dozens of resources in the Central Florida area alone that will support you as you work toward addiction recovery.

International organizations like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), church support groups and hotlines are just a few of the resources that exist to help you end your addiction.

Support Groups

Support groups are an excellent way to track your progress and connect to others dealing with similar issues. Support groups exist for almost every type of addiction, and most groups are free to attend.

Typical support groups include anonymous membership, guidance from experienced professionals and different strategies to prevent relapses and cravings.

Central Florida Intergroup

Virtual Support Groups

Though there are many support groups in the Central Florida area, there may not be an organization or location that suits your needs. Virtual support groups give you aid and encouragement without having to meet with others in person. Facebook groups, web calls with therapists and online forums can provide the support you need to stay off drugs. Consult with a doctor or licensed professional to see if a virtual support group will satisfy your needs.

Church Support Groups

People who want to recover in a faith-based environment may seek out a support group that aligns with their beliefs. These programs follow the original 12-step program design, where addicts recovered through their faith in God. Celebrate Recovery is a Christian-oriented support program with many groups in Central Florida. Celebrate Recovery makes it easy to find a group near you. Dr. Hoffman is also a founder in establishing Action Recovery at Action Church, located in Winter Park. There are multiple locations for Action Church in Central Florida.
