The purpose of the following comments is to make the Anaheim City Council aware of free recovery communities
dedicated to helping adults of all ages, but particularly young adults succeed in their long-term drug and alcohol
recovery.
Drug and alcohol addiction have become epidemic in America and particularly in Orange County with the explosion of
the Opioid crisis. There are multiple paths to drug and alcohol recovery available in Orange County and many resources
are free. 12 Step Programs, Faith Based, Smart Recovery and Medical Assist are some of the pathways.
Young People in Recovery or YPR is a nonprofit organization in Orange County dedicated to administering free
resources for long term recovery to anyone in Orange County. Recovery support communities such as YPR and The
Phoenix Organization based in Newport are dedicated to helping young and older adults thrive and live a drug and
alcohol-free lifestyle.
