ALL RECOVERY MEETINGS
“All Recovery Meetings” are similar to “AA meetings,” but they are not specific to a certain substance or type of recovery.
This meeting is for anyone who needs support in their recovery journey!
This might look like: not being able to stay abstinent from substances, being newly on the road to recovery, or needing some accountability after a recent setback.
“Before finding Austin 17, I had been to therapy, to outpatient programs, to inpatient programs—you name it. Nothing connected for me or made a difference, but Austin 17 and Jessie have been the difference for me and for other kids.” Amelia has recently celebrated over 20 months free from drugs and alcohol through A17H programming.

The Austin17House was accredited by the state for juvenile court diversion through the NH Juvenile Court Diersion Network as we were seeing referrals for substance use-related offenses over the years.
It wasn't long before a partnership began to form between A17H and Chucky's Fight in Seabrook, NH. In collaboration Fight Club 17 was born, to better serve youth impacted by addiction as a whole.
Our Director
Jessie is a confident and resilient individual who has overcome addiction, finding both recovery and herself. It has since been her passion to bring this hope to others who need support.
She will be working with the Austin17House as an onsite Certified Recovery Support Worker and Masters-level Social Worker.
This partnership has also opened up doors to partner with Chucky's Fight, a non-profit that helps those in need of recovery services get the support and resources they need.
