VOLUNTEERING
Folks, please consider volunteering for any organization that provides support or distributes aid to those in need. Resources are scarce, and help is limited. A couple of hours a week is reasonable. The benefits to others will be significant, and the benefits that you receive yourself can be significant as well. Thank you for posting this. And to those who currently volunteer, thank you so much for your efforts.

VOLUNTEERING - MENTORING

VOLUNTEERING - SMART
Volunteering for SMART Recovery not only provides you with a fulfilling sense of purpose, but you learn how to manage your own life as you help others learn how to manage theirs.
You will have to take the facilitator training if you want to facilitate a SMART meeting, but if you’re still interested, you can start here: Help SMART Recovery Grow: https://smartrecoverytraining.org/moodle/.
