Join Our Team of Volunteers

The success of SMART Recovery depends on the help of an amazing network of volunteers teaching and spreading the word about the SMART Recovery program all across the globe.

SMART volunteers hold a variety of roles, including facilitator, online facilitator, board member, committee members and more. These volunteers have a diversity of backgrounds, including treatment professionals, family and/or friends of someone with addiction, individuals who are in long term recovery. What they have in common is a desire to help others along their journey.

We would love to have you on our team. Please continue reading for more information on how you can become involved in SMART Recovery.

Overview of SMART Recovery Volunteer Options

Local Volunteering with SMART Recovery

Local SMART Recovery Facilitators serve as a vital resource for people in their communities looking for relief from addictive behaviors. These volunteers often grow into a role of ambassador, providing information to local doctors, courts, and community. We need your help to fight this addiction epidemic!

Read inspiring stories from people who have started a SMART Recovery meeting in their communities.

We are grateful for new volunteers who launch SMART Recovery meetings throughout the world. Please click here to learn more about becoming a local volunteer and/or facilitator.
