About Save A Life
Community Recovery Resources
Save A Life started as a group of people who saw a problem and grew into a center that serves people every single day. We walk along side people seeking recovery, people in recovery, affected others, and community members alike. You are not alone. We firmly believe that together we recover. You are welcome here any time and at any of our programs. Save a Life offers a variety of free resources such as recovery coaching, meetings, secondary prevention tools, and programs. We offer creative outlets such as art, writing, music, and more. We fight every day to reduce stigma and other barriers. We hope you feel welcome to come and visit us anytime.

The opportunity to assist the Save-A-Life Recovery Resource center as a Board member presented itself as the facility was opening, and afforded me the welcome opportunity to assist in the development of additional recovery resources for the upper Penobscot area.
