Peer recovery coaching

A peer recovery coach in Kalamazoo can be a starting point for discussing goals, recovery pathways and practical barriers. Ask about current availability and the kind of support you want; you do not need to arrive with every next step already decided.

Family recovery support

For families across Kalamazoo, support can begin with listening, boundaries and a plan for your own well-being. Explore Supporting a Loved One Through Recovery, or contact SMRC to ask about current family education opportunities.
