Staying safe, sober, and connected – let’s discover what we can do together!
Join our supportive community to share your experiences, celebrate your wins, and have a little fun along the way.

If you’re seeking a fun, sober lifestyle, you’ve come to the right place! Whether you’re in recovery, have been sober for decades, or are simply “sober curious,” Out of the Ashes (OOTA) offers a chance to come together and make connections with likeminded people at various stages of recovery.

We understand the frustration that comes with life’s reality that many social engagements revolve around alcohol and drugs. This can often lead to feelings of isolation for us recovering folks. At OOTA, we believe that people in recovery should also have an opportunity to create a rich and vibrant social life. We celebrate the fact that recovery offers a bright, colourful future that is full of possibility.

Because we know that quitting alcohol or drugs doesn’t mean quitting fun, I want us to plan local social events from golfing, to hiking, to skating, to card games – you name it! Lets fill up the calendar with activities inspired by you. 

The recovery journey is both painful and sweet. We know this because we’re in it ourselves. But we want you to know that dealing with life on life’s terms can get a little easier when we do it together.

Belonging to a recovery community fosters connection, supports social and spiritual growth, and allows us to thrive in our journey, as we share our common experiences and have a little fun along the way!

As Johann Hari said: “the opposite of addiction is connection.”
