Frequently Asked Questions
What can I expect at these meetings?
These virtual all recovery meetings are very similar to in-person open recovery meetings. People can join from anywhere and either listen, share, or both. Participants are often in recovery, but may also be allies of the recovery community or family members and loved ones of individuals in recovery.
When are the meetings offered?
We are currently hosting meetings daily at 7am, 9am, 12pm, 3pm, 6pm, 9pm, and 11pm EST. There is a daily meeting for family and loved ones at 8pm EST, a weekly women's meeting on Tuesdays at 7pm EST, and a weekly LGBTQ+ meeting on Wednesdays at 11am EST. We may also add additional meeting times in the future as capacity needs grow. As meetings continue to get cancelled, please share this information with your networks and keep coming back.

Who do I talk to if I need extra support?
If anyone you know, or you yourself, needs extra support, please feel to message the meeting facilitator on the platform, or send an email to contact@unityrecovery.org and we’ll get you connected to a peer support specialist ASAP.
How do I share on the meeting?
If you would like to share, you can click “participants” and then the blue “raise hand” button and it will let the facilitator know you would like to share.
How can I verify meeting attendance?
To request meeting attendance verification, please fill out the form at unityrecovery.org/verification. Verification will be provided to you automatically via email after submitting the form.
Are these meetings recorded?
To respect privacy, we do not allow meetings to be recorded by any attendee or facilitator. It is possible that screenshots of a screen may be taken however, just as if an attendee took a picture at an in-person meeting. We do encourage all attendees to not take screenshots to be respectful.
