Recovery Support Services
Recovery Caf San Jose provides supportive services to people who have been traumatized by homelessness, substance abuse addiction and mental health challenges. Services include emotional support, education, and food assistance. Recovery Circles are small weekly peer support and accountability groups that form the base of the RCSJ program. Through the Recovery Circles, each member comes to be deeply known and supported by at least one staff member, volunteer facilitator or peer leader. School for Recovery offers 8-week session classes in the following categories: Life Skills, Inner Healing and Relationships, Health Living and Addiction and Recovery, Physical exercise Nutrition and more. Barista and Culinary Training Program is an 8-week course preparing members to work in the restaurant and service industry.In ordinary circumstances, and up to March 2020 we provided hot meals, Recovery Circles and School for Recovery classes to more than 300 unique individuals. The COVID-19 pandemic greatly impacted our service delivery. The community need became greater than ever as more people became homeless locally as well as our members had increased challenges to substance use and mental health. While we remained operative as an essential service, for safety and health reasons from April 2020-June 2021 members did not come on site but rather attended Recovery Circles and School for Recovery classes virtually via Zoom. We began meal and grocery delivery, to individuals where lived, be it board and care homes, apartments, sober living environments or homeless encampments, making more than 814 deliveries in 2020. Onsite meals and classes resumed in June 2021.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesSep 1, 2021 – Aug 31, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$581.4K
