You might have noticed our campus refreshed this week and that's all thanks to our amazing volunteers! Last weekend at Mission in Motion, they got to work on the lush bamboo that lines our campus, trimming it down to let the light shine in 🌞 Others worked on organizing, decluttering, and writing notes of encouragement to new clients. A round of applause for our volunteers! 👏👏👏

You’ve had each other’s backs in the toughest moments. You don’t have to walk recovery alone either.

A new AA-based group for Active and Retired Military & First Responders, Warriors Anonymous is starting at The Council. This meeting provides a space where those who have worn the uniform can speak freely, be understood, and find recovery alongside others who know the weight of service. No ranks. No titles. Just recovery.

🗓️ Tuesdays 11:30am
📍 The Council on Recovery, 303 Jackson Hill St, Houston, TX 77007
