Recovery Advocates in Livingston (RAIL) is a peer-operated organization offering nonclinical Recovery Support Services (RSS) to assist individuals and families in overcoming alcohol and drug-related challenges.

Advocating for
Long-Term Recovery
Recovery does not happen in isolation. RAIL offers community-based recovery support services and sober living homes to promote and advocate for sustained, long-term recovery. Our mission is to create an environment where individuals can thrive and transform their lives.
The Four Major Dimensions of Recovery
Health – Overcoming or managing one’s disease or symptoms, such as abstaining from alcohol, illicit drugs, and non-prescribed medication in cases of addiction, and making informed, healthy choices that support physical and emotional well-being.
Home – Having a stable and safe place to live.
Purpose – Engaging in meaningful daily activities, such as employment, school, volunteerism, family care, or creative pursuits, along with achieving the independence, income, and resources to participate fully in society.
Community – Building relationships and social networks that offer support, friendship, love, and hope.
