About This Cause
Recovery Acres Society, a local non-profit organization dedicated to providing an effective substance abuse treatment program that minimizes disruption and cost to the individual, family, employer, and the community at large, is located in a residential area of Calgary. We offer separate men's and women's alcohol and drug treatment programs, which include daily living and meeting space for residents, in addition to day program clients, counselors and staff. In addition, Recovery Acres operates Phase 3 (transitional) housing at other Calgary locations for working clients who have completed treatment but are in need of group-living support for longer periods to achieve full independence. RACS has been the start of a new life for thousands of men since our doors first opened in 1973. The women's program (started in 2016), has done same. The program is not for tourists. We require unreserved, total commitment to the goal of living sober, and unconditional acceptance of House rules and routines. No one is invited into the program. To become a client a person must: a) need our services b) want our services c) ask to join us d) commit to the program e) be prepared to be held to the commitment The RACS program is based on total abstinence from all mood-altering substances, the 12-Step process, and mandatory employment as therapy.
