Links to a variety of self-help support groups for people trying to recover from alcoholism, drug addiction, and compulsive gambling are listed below. These groups are not formally affiliated with nor specifically endorsed by UChicago Student Wellness. Each, however, has been shown to be helpful for certain types of people seeking recovery help. As noted, some of these groups have online meetings available. Our staff are available to discuss any addiction concerns you may have and to help you determine in what ways a support group might be helpful for you.
