Refuge Recovery

Substance Recovery · Florida · Free

Buddhist-inspired addiction recovery program with LGBTQ+ welcoming meetings. For LGBTQ+ people seeking recovery from alcohol, drugs, or behavioral addictions in identity-affirming spaces. Sober social events (queer sober dance nights, hikes, brunches) are organized in most metros. LGBTQ+ adults have 2–4x higher rates of substance use disorder than straight peers — minority stress is the driver, not identity. No cost — the program is grant-funded and confidentiality-protected.
