Everett Recovery Cafe

Everett Recovery Cafe bridges the gap between crisis and long-term recovery, preventing relapse and giving people the opportunity to find stability and thrive. Our mission is to be a safe, healing community for individuals in recovery from the trauma of addiction, housing insecurity, and mental health challenges, empowering long-term transformation through human connection.

Our drug and alcohol-free environment provides a loving community, anchoring members in the behaviors needed to gain and maintain housing, social and health services, healthy relationships, education, and employment. The Café’s peer Recovery Circle support groups, daily meal service, and 1-1 recovery coaching provide the structure needed to develop healthy relationships and accountability that supports members along their path to gain and maintain recovery, reduce relapse, and to thrive as they fulfill their growth potential.

Recently, one Cafe Member shared: “When I found the Cafe, I was in a sober house, struggling with my mental health. Through weekly Recovery Circles and one-on-one coaching, I found my footing. The Cafe’s support helped me secure my own apartment and transition into full-time work. I am incredibly grateful to the staff for helping me build a stable, independent life.”

 In 2025, Everett Recovery Cafe served 878 Members, provided over 19,500 meals, and held 9,001 Recovery Circles.
