    My husband (almost 68) is interested in smart recovery, but we can’t find an address or phone number for you. Are there people as old as him in your group?

    • So sorry Louise, the contact info for our SMART Recovery group is Nicole Publicover and the e-mail is . He could contact the Reach Centre at 902-620-0000 or Nicole at 902-316-1252 to find out more. Our group right now is all ages although we do tend to have participants between 20-40 as the majority. There will be meetings started in Charlottetown shortly as well and as SMART Recovery becomes more established on the Island there is likely to be a broader age range. Currently this meeting is held at 223 Mason Road in Stratford, and generally having a wider range of ages and experiences leads to more interesting meetings. We would be happy to have him come out!
