Description

This group has been set up to enable Indigenous/Aboriginal people who are sober from alcohol and other drugs - to make contact and support each other. Our sober friends are welcome to join us too!

So if you are happy to stay sober - one day at a time - join up so we can support each others sobriety and recovery.

“Is it our right to drink or our responsibility to get sober?Aunty Mary Graham, an Elder from Brisbane said that in the old way we wouldn’t have had a Human Rights Commission, we would have had a Human Responsibilities Commission. We already knew we each had rights as humans, to eat, to have love, and to have water but what was more important was our responsibility to help each other to survive, to look after ourselves with dignity, to look after our Elders, our dreaming sites and lands. How can we look after our land if we are drunk?
(HOPE Conference 1995)

The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. So if you are interested, join up and lets start talking!
