It’s a welcome endorsement of the effectiveness and solid track record of Allies in Recovery: recognition by a trusted journal as one of the 10 best companies dedicated to addiction recovery in the United States.

Great news! The Healthcare Business Review, an award-winning online and print journal covering the healthcare industry, has named Allies in Recovery one of the ten best substance use disorder recovery companies in 2024.

In making the award, the HBR also published a terrific profile of Allies, with some of the highlights of our first 21 years (and especially our post-2015 transition to an online format). Did you know, for example, that 82% of Allies members report significant improvements in how their Loved Ones respond to them? Or that CRAFT users report a 65-70% rate at getting their Loved Ones into recovery? Or that we facilitate this sort of success for a tiny fraction of the cost of private interventions—or at no cost, in states or counties that provide free membership?

Allies in Recovery works because its method is tested and proven, but also because it’s a true community—learning together, sharing expertise and lived experience, holding one another up. If you’re new to Allies, the HBR profile is a great summary of our approach, our track record, and where we’re going next.

Material Rewards Can Make Recovery Fun — and Lead To Dramatically Better Outcomes

The research is clear: tangible rewards can greatly improve recovery efforts. Such programs are at last being given a chance.

Now, after decades of resistance in the U.S., the approach is being adopted in states and cities across the country.
