RICARES, short for Rhode Island Communities for Addiction Recovery Efforts, is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting individuals and families affected by addiction. At RICARES, we provide a range of services aimed at promoting recovery and reducing the stigma surrounding substance use disorders. Our programs include peer support groups, educational workshops, advocacy efforts, and community outreach initiatives. Through our compassionate and empowering approach, we strive to create a supportive environment where individuals can find hope, healing, and the resources they need to embark on their journey towards lasting recovery.

We envision vibrant and diverse recovery communities that champion Rhode Islanders from any background at every stage of their unique recovery pathways.
