Alcohol and Drug Recovery Support in the U.S.
Sobriety Systems · U.S. resource guide
Find support. Make a plan for today.
Meeting directories, sober activities, and a free daily planning worksheet for adults in the United States. Start with the kind of connection you want, then put one next step on your calendar.
Where can I find help with alcohol or drugs?
For alcohol or drug recovery support in the United States, start with the kind of help you need: a licensed treatment provider, a peer recovery meeting, or practical structure for everyday life. You do not need a Sobriety Systems account or paid membership to use the resources on this page.
Considering stopping alcohol? If you have been drinking heavily for a prolonged period, suddenly stopping can cause dangerous withdrawal. Speak with a qualified healthcare professional about a safe plan. See NIAAA’s guidance on changing your drinking. For a medical emergency, call 911.
Find treatment or professional advice
- FindTreatment.gov: SAMHSA’s U.S. directory for substance use and mental health treatment. Search for services in your area and ask providers about availability, fees, insurance, and the care they offer.
- NIAAA Alcohol Treatment Navigator: guidance on finding and comparing alcohol treatment for yourself or someone you care about.
Source: SAMHSA’s treatment-finding guidance. A planning worksheet cannot assess withdrawal, diagnose a condition, or replace treatment.
Find alcohol and drug recovery meetings
For A.A., use our guide to official online A.A. meeting resources. For Narcotics Anonymous, use NA World Services’ local community and virtual meeting finders. For in-person NA meetings, follow the local community link for its current schedule. For online meetings, check the format, time zone, and who the meeting is open to. The secular and other recovery options below provide additional places to begin.
Make a practical plan alongside your support
Use the free sober evening planner to choose an action for tonight, the free sober weekend planner and event card to prepare for time away from your usual routine, or the seven-day sobriety planning course to practice daily anchors. All are self-guided educational tools, available without signup. The optional paid membership is described separately below.

Turn a resource into one next step
- Choose one connection. Save the meeting or activity link and the correct time zone.
- Give it a place in your day. Write down when you will join, register, or contact the organizer.
- Keep a smaller plan. If your schedule changes, choose another available time or reach out to a trusted person.
