Recovery Support for Augusta and Nearby Communities
People in Augusta and nearby communities are welcome to contact Southwest Michigan Recovery Center in Kalamazoo. Recovery questions may begin with a loved one, a volunteer role or a need for your own support. A respectful conversation can help clarify where to start.
The Augusta-Ross Township District Library, also known as the McKay-Dole Library, is on South Webster in Augusta, Michigan. Its website links to Michigan eLibrary and Southwest Michigan digital materials. These are independent learning resources, not confirmed SMRC program locations.
You can ask about peer recovery support before deciding how to travel or what service to pursue. Explain the kind of connection you are looking for, and confirm current SMRC availability and appointment arrangements.
For supporters in Augusta, education can include preparing for a difficult conversation and recognizing when to ask for professional help. You do not have to solve a loved one’s recovery alone or make every decision for them.
