National Alliance for Recovery Residences

01/08/2026

Recovery is more than sobriety. It’s safety, stability, accountability and hope.

In this short video, you’ll hear why quality recovery residences are essential and why NARR’s work matters now more than ever. Across the country, people in recovery depend on homes that are ethical, supportive, and grounded in proven standards.

That doesn’t happen by chance.

Through national standards, affiliate support, education, and advocacy, NARR helps ensure recovery residences are places where people can truly rebuild their lives. We don’t just support housing—we protect residents, elevate best practices, and strengthen the entire recovery ecosystem.

You can help ensure recovery works. Your donation supports standards that save lives, protect residents, and create real pathways to lasting recovery.

Together, we can build recovery rooted in dignity, integrity, and real opportunity.
