Dear Friend,

2019 was a big year for SMART Recovery – and we have you to thank for it! 
 
This year marked 25 years of self-empowered, science-based recovery meetings, and millions of lives touched by our program. None of this could have happened without YOU, our outstanding community of SMART participants, volunteers, and supporters who are helping us lead a 21st century recovery revolution. Together we will change the addiction recovery landscape, now and for future generations.
 
In this email, we provide a look at some of the meaningful ways your support was put to work in 2019. 
 
Thank you again for your generous support this year. From all of us whose lives you have touched, we wish you and yours a healthy and happy holiday.
 
Sincerely, 
Bill Greer, President
Mark Ruth, Executive Director
2019 Key Accomplishments
Through your generous support, SMART Recovery was able to do some pretty amazing things this year!
 
Tremendous progress was made in Washington D.C. in introducing SMART Recovery to leading members of Congress, especially those crafting legislation to end the opioid and larger addiction epidemic. We made significant progress in our efforts to obtain multimillion-dollar funding to bring our meetings to everyone who needs the self-empowering support that SMART provides individuals and their family members and friends. Read Part 1 and Part 2 updates.
 
Our online meeting software was upgraded. This opened our online meetings up to many more participants and added the option of video conferencing. Learn more about this upgrade.
 
The 2019 National Conference was the largest to date! This year’s conference attracted more than 250 attendees to Chicago, along with an additional 3,000+ joining us via live streaming. Find our recap of this year’s National Conference.
 
A redesigned and reorganized SMARTRecovery.org was launched. Our new, optimized website is helping to attract more visitors and helping them navigate the site more intuitively. Visit www.smartrecovery.org to check out our new website.
 
A new, robust video initiative was launched as part of our efforts to reach younger generations of people struggling with addiction who obtain the majority of their information online through video. Visit our YouTube page to see our new video content.

It’s been a big year for SMART, and none of this could have happened without your support. THANK YOU!
We are also grateful to be participating in the amazing $7 million match opportunity from Facebook this year. [ Read More ].
