The Alano Club’s Peer-Connect program, employs six certified recovery mentors, all of whom have lived experience. The mentors offer one-on-one support, encouragement, and goal-setting to their mentees. To obtain a mentor, go to the Alano Club website, fill out the form, and expect a response in three days. Sobriety is not a requirement for obtaining a mentor. Together the mentor and mentee will form a plan. Mentors are flexible in what they can do. They might provide transportation to meetings, attend meetings with mentees, provide bus passes, locate housing, take new-comers out to dinner, or assist with residential treatment placements. The Alano Club sponsors a free Recovery Yoga class twice weekly. They also sponsor a Sounds of Recovery group in which participants express their recovery journeys through sound, music, and the spoken word. The Sounds of Recovery groups take place in their basement meeting space. They have also hosted talent shows in the same space. Meeting rooms are rented by self-run groups such as Smart Recovery, AA, NA, Psychedelics in Recovery, Al-Anon, and Peak Recovery. Peak Recovery groups offer mountaineering, split-boarding, and rock-climbing experiences. There are also meditation groups and a monthly expungement clinic. addiction treatment alano club 2025-10-30T23:15:06Z 2460979.4688194 Alano Club - Peer Support Groups 0 Office (503) 222-5756 Alano Club - Peer Support Groups# 3ace573c3e9a4e9be6daeb74614a9d62 0 East County Alano Center (503) 661-4734 Alano Club - Peer Support Groups# 2a9c27f9f05bef97eed3ccfea4ec5a5a
