CONNECTING THE RECOVERY COMMUNITY
At the Alano Club, you will find encouragement from a recovery community that shares their experience, strength, and hope.
Recovery Grounds Cafe
Brewing Hope & Connection
The Alano Club of Battle Creek has been a safe haven for individuals and families impacted by addiction for more than 40 years. Open 365 days a year, the Club welcomes thousands through its doors annually for peer-led meetings, education, and connection. Last year alone, there were more than 25,000 visits to over 3,000 recovery programs and meetings—proof that recovery thrives when people have a place to belong.
The next step in this mission is Recovery Grounds Café — a social enterprise designed to build community, expand recovery support, and sustain the Alano Club’s impact for generations to come.
This initiative is rooted in three powerful goals:
- 🫱 Connection: A welcoming café space where people in recovery, families, and community members can gather, share, and support one another.
- 📚 Empowerment: Workshops and programs focused on financial literacy, life skills, and job readiness—addressing the real-world barriers to long-term recovery.
- 💼 Sustainability: A recovery-friendly business that creates meaningful employment opportunities while generating funds to sustain our mission.
Why this matters:
Shelters and food programs address urgent needs, but without ongoing recovery support, too many individuals cycle back into crisis. Recovery Grounds Café will help break that cycle, creating a space where hope is nurtured, families are strengthened, and recovery becomes a community investment—not just an individual struggle.
Your support makes this possible.
By investing in Recovery Grounds Café, you’re not just funding a project — you’re helping build a stronger, healthier Battle Creek.
👉 Invest in connection. Invest in recovery. Invest in hope.
