About Serenity Recovery Connection

Serenity Recovery Connection (SRC) is a leading community-based organization focused on supporting individuals and families affected by substance use disorders. SRC offers a variety of free programs, including recovery coaching, family support, and peer-led groups tailored to diverse needs such as court-involved individuals, healthcare peers, and veterans. Conditions addressed include addiction, substance use disorders, and their ripple effects on families and communities.
What sets SRC apart is its peer-driven approach—programs are led by individuals who have walked the recovery journey themselves. This fosters a compassionate, stigma-free environment rooted in understanding and shared experience. SRC’s holistic services empower individuals to reclaim their lives, while family-focused programs, like CRAFT (Community Reinforcement and Family Training), provide tools for loved ones to support recovery. Through a mix of evidence-based methods and community connection, SRC inspires lasting, transformative healing.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Serenity Recovery Connection provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)
