History
Cornerstone to Recovery (formerly Steps to Recovery) has been operating a successful not-for-profit
charitable social enterprise since 2004. Initially starting solely as a residential treatment program
for adult men, Cornerstone has grown immensely to offer a wide variety of programs and
services for men, women and families impacted by addiction. Cornerstone utilizes a highly
successful framework to help those who are ready to regain control over their lives and
well-being. Cornerstone’s programs and services work together to heal the body, mind and spirit,
all within our dynamic and growing recovery community.
Life Saving Programs
Cornerstone to Recovery is a highly unique and effective grassroots organization. Our programs
exist within 4 distinct pillars, each of which provides a critical facet of sustainable and high-quality
recovery. We focus on accessibility, safety and creating a space for individuals to be a
part of something bigger than themselves. We have no, to minimal, wait times, free or low-cost,
subsidized programs and a team of highly motivated and educated staff.
