Providing Creative Support for Women in 12-Step Programs

History

WRR began in 2006 when a group of women joined together with a desire to extend recovery activities beyond the time constraints of individual meetings.

The three-day retreat in a peaceful lakeside setting offered fellowship, fun, and a deeper understanding of recovery principles.

The retreat brought together women of diverse ages, backgrounds and lengths of sobriety to share their experience, strength, and hope with each other.

For women new to recovery, it was a chance to develop a solid foundation in recovery and to expand their network of healthy supportive friendships. Through fundraising it became possible to offer the retreat experience to women with limited financial resources.

The retreat has grown year by year and has become a staple for women even outside the Ann Arbor area.

Retreat

Our goal is to:

• Support and enhance recovery from addiction to alcohol and drugs.
• Provide a space for peaceful reflection and spiritual renewal.
• Offer a place for fellowship and expanding individual resources within the recovery community.
