Project Description
People in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction have a unique set of challenges during this time. Many rely on on daily in-person AA and NA meetings or in-person needle exchange or outpatient programs to see them through this process. The locations of these meetings or support services were once known, accessible, and based on set geographic locations and schedules. COVID-19 has disrupted this network of support as everything has moved virtual, we need ways to help these individuals find support. This project seeks to consolidate information about support services (AA and NA meetings - Alcoholics and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) meetings, needle exchange programs, in-patient and out-patient recovery programs, and more) and get this support to the people who need it most.
