Statement of Purpose

Bridging the Gap is a program designed to forge that essential link between treatment and recovery by providing temporary contacts for alcoholics being released from institutions.

If you or someone you know is being released from a treatment or correctional facility please call Bridging the Gap at 855-565-2345 or complete this online form and we will get you connected with an AA volunteer as soon as possible.

Presentations: We are available to give presentations to institutions, AA business meetings, and district meetings in order to educate both the outside community and AA members of the purpose of the Bridging the Gap in order for it to work more effectively.
