Rhode Island Communities for Addiction Recovery Efforts (RICARES) is a non-profit recovery community organization (RCO) that organizes and mobilizes the more than 80,000 Rhode Islanders in recovery from alcohol and other drug problems, and our families, friends and allies, to ensure that every Rhode Islander impacted by a substance use problem has the resources and services they need to recover and succeed, to live self-directed lives, and to reach their full potential.

We envision vibrant and diverse recovery communities that champion Rhode Islanders from any background at every stage of their unique recovery pathways.
