The second tier group meets on Tuesday & Thursday from 11:00am to1:45pm.Both tier groups are invited to attend on Friday from 11:00am to 1:45pm. Additionally, program members are invited to attend a community AA meeting.

During hours of operation, a variety of groups are available to promote recovery for members. Some group topics includes: Hazelden Experimental Learning Program, Dual Recovery Anonymous, Smoking Cessation and Adult Education.

Penobscot Place is a drop-in day support that provides acceptance and a non-judgmental approach toward the recovery process for individuals with co-occurring disorders.

The short-term goal of this program is “harm reduction” with a long-term goal of abstinence.

Participation is voluntary and individuals are invited to join low-stress educational groups that adhere to the 12-step approach.
