By owning and operating a beautiful, historic community center that hosts the largest and most diverse offering of mutual-aid support meetings and recovery services in Oregon, the Alano Club of Portland is able to bring healing, hope and solutions to more than 10,000 visitors each month.

Ours is a safe, loving and inviting home for more than 100 weekly recovery support meetings, recovery seminars and workshops, yoga and meditation classes, sobriety-based social events, information and referral services for treatment resources, and holiday celebrations for the recovery community. Who We Help
We serve thousands of recovering men, women and families across 20 distinct mutual aid programs, including Alcoholics Anonymous, Al-Anon family groups, Gamblers Anonymous, Food Addicts Anonymous, Wellbriety, Refuge Recovery and nearly everything in between!

Spring has just about sprung, and we’re getting ready for Alano’s Annual Membership Drive!

Our Membership Drive kicks off on April 16th! This annual campaign not only supports Alano’s future but offers all of us an opportunity to reflect on what Alano has meant to us as we recover.

This year, we’ll be introducing some limited-edition merch that celebrates the early days of Alano. Stay tuned for a sneak peek!

We hope you’ll join us in supporting Alano’s continued legacy and the thousands of lives changed over nearly 80 years of service to our community.

How do stories shape our understanding of ourselves? Is it possible to use storytelling techniques to challenge those accepted truths and bring about positive transformation? Join Carly Schwartz, author of the recently-published memoir I’ll Try Anything Twice: Misadventures of a Self-Medicated Life, for an interactive evening of connection and exploration. In this 90-minute session, an offshoot of Carly’s Mindwriters workshop series, you’ll identify stories that no longer serve you, find narrative threads that shift your understanding of yourself, and use that new perspective to think about how to make meaningful changes in your life. Inspired by narrative therapy philosophies and techniques, this workshop includes guided free-writing exercises and opportunities to share and reflect in a safe container. Please bring a pen, paper, and an openness to explore your inner world and your perception of yourself.
