“Welcome to the Recovery Café” documentary screening
Friday 9/15 from 2pm-4pm
Friend of Recovery Café, Paul Steinbroner, has created a documentary about the Recovery Café and how this model of healing supports an entire community of recovery. There are now over
60 Recovery Cafés across North America. He will join us in screening the documentary and a Q&A afterward.

Some voices shared:
Ruby—”Like any other spiritual discipline you show up for it, you practice it and then by grace, gift, miracle something beyond us, it takes.”
Eliott—”Everyone here is viewed as a spiritual being having a human experience.”
Vicki—”This community holds people accountable. We have to show up, give back, clean up but it is our home, our community. We own it.”
Terri D.—”This cafe is so amazing! They have grown into knowing what the people want, not what they want from the people. That’s what I get from the cafe. What can we do for you?”
Killian—”I believe that this is a community where all of us remind each other every day in a thousand different ways that we do belong to each other and boy, that is joy, to know that
you belong to a people.”
Tiffany—”We believe in radical hospitality and that when you become a member you are here to be known and loved.”
Tony—”Recovery circles are a strong way from keeping people from slipping back into their addiction because we build a strong foundation around the individual by providing friendship
and community.”
