Connecticut Community for Addiction Recovery (CCAR) Tabling @ Ives In-Person

What does CCAR do, and why does it matter?

Along with organizing the recovery community (people in recovery, family members, friends and allies) to 1) put a face on recovery and 2) provide recovery support services, we also promote recovery from alcohol and other drug addiction through advocacy, education and service. CCAR strives to end discrimination surrounding addiction and recovery, open new doors and remove barriers to recovery, maintain and sustain recovery regardless of the pathway, all the while ensuring that all people in recovery, and people seeking recovery, are treated with dignity and respect.

Our Values – CCAR meets people where they are. We don’t push any one form of recovery on anyone. Over the years CCAR has developed some foundational principles on which we base our work. They are:

  • Recovery First.
  • You are in recovery if you say you are.
  • There are many pathways of recovery.
  • Focus on the recovery potential, not the pathology.
  • Err on the side of the recoveree.
  • Err on the side of being generous.
