Empowering Awareness for Our Cause
Substance use disorder — including alcoholism and addiction — affects millions of people, and young people often face it alone. As stated in the 2023 SAMHSA National Survey, more than 1 in 4 young adults aged 18 to 25 met the criteria for a substance use disorder, making it the age group most affected nationwide. Yet the majority did not receive treatment. By raising awareness, we help break down stigma, strengthen unity, and connect young people to the path of recovery. Through service and shared effort, even small acts — like sharing a flyer or starting a conversation — can carry a message that saves a life.


Our Mission Matters
Together We Can
When young people come together in service, something powerful happens: hope is shared, stigma fades, and recovery becomes possible. Our fellowship exists not just to help individuals get sober, but to create a community where young people can grow, lead, and heal — together. Guided by AA’s legacies of Recovery, Unity, and Service, we believe that carrying the message isn’t just a responsibility — it’s a privilege. Whether it’s attending a meeting, sharing our message, or simply showing up for someone new, each act of service helps build a stronger, more connected future for young people in recovery.
