A three-step intended journey

How Recovery Match Works

This is the journey Recovery Match is intended to offer. It’s deliberately simple, and today every step involves a real person on our side.

01

Tell us what you are looking for

A short form asks who you're seeking support for and what kind of help would make the biggest difference. Only the basics: no clinical questionnaire, no medical history.

02

Identify potential resources/pathways

A member of our team reads what you shared and looks at the recovery resources, organizations and community options that fit your situation and location.

03

Connect and take the next step

We follow up personally with what we found, and stay reachable afterwards. You decide what to do with it. Nothing happens automatically.

This is the intended process. During the MVP period, inquiries, resource identification and connections may be handled manually. There is no automated matching, no algorithm and no AI behind it. AAN12 is also not an emergency, crisis-response or clinical provider. If you need help right now, please use the crisis resources.

Ready to start?

It takes a couple of minutes, and a person will get back to you.
