    The Center for Prevention and Counseling has recently extended Recovery Support services to include “Drop-In for Recovery” days at the Hopatcong Wellness Center, 47 Hopatchung Road, Hopatcong, and also at the Vernon Senior Center, 21 Church St, Vernon. The Center has trained recovery coaches to assist community members with a recovery plan, free of charge. No appointment is necessary, with three locations, including Newton.

    In Hopatcong, every Wednesday beginning on March 4, 2020 from 3-6 p.m. and in Vernon, every Friday from 3-6 p.m. a Recovery Coach will be available to greet anyone seeking information on starting their own recovery from alcohol or other drugs. Many times, family and friends are the first to seek help. This free support is available to anyone, no appointment necessary and will offer an opportunity for people to speak confidentially to a trained recovery coach at all of the three countywide locations. Since 2017, The Center in Newton has hosted a “Drop In for Recovery” which continues Mondays from noon until 6 p.m. at the Center’s 65 Newton-Sparta Road Sussex County Recovery Community Center location.

    To learn more about the Hopatcong, Vernon or Newton Drop-In days or any other recovery support services, call the Sussex County Recovery Community Center at 973-940-2966 or email annmarie@centerforprevention.org.
