addiction support

Dependency recovery assistance

Addiction support refers to resources, programs, and communities that help people struggling with substance abuse or compulsive behaviors.

This includes treatment centers, counseling, peer groups like Alcoholics Anonymous, and crisis hotlines.

The term also covers emotional backing from friends and family: Her addiction support network kept her accountable during recovery.

Support may extend to practical help—housing, employment assistance, or medical care for those in recovery.
