Support Groups at Samaritan Daytop Village

At Samaritan Daytop Village, we understand that recovery is a lifelong journey – and an individual’s support network can potentially make all the difference. Both during and after treatment, we will provide large-scale support to help guide individuals and their families throughout their recovery process. Our volunteer-based Support Groups offer opportunities for those in recovery as well as their families to connect, learn, and grow together.
