Why should I support the WHRC and attend meetings there?
To many, the WHRC (presently, and in its many incarnations over the
years) provides a focal point for the recovery community and for anyone
seeking recovery within the city at large. Your individual support
and meeting attendance at the WHRC, along with community support and
enthusiasm, enable us to keep our doors open each and every day, especially
when the time comes for those seeking out recovery for the first time.

Why should we have our meeting at the WHRC?
Your meeting held at the WHRC helps the Center offer a varied and
full meeting schedule for the entire recovery community. Your meeting's
rent goes towards the WHRC finding a permanent home in West Hollywood
and ensuring consistent and long-term presence of the recovery community.

Are there meeting rules at the WHRC?
The WHRC has a posted set of house rules of conduct and will periodically
provide housekeeping announcements for meeting secretaries. Meetings
are required to indicate the number of attendees at each meeting.
This information, given to the City is critical in helping WHRC secure
grant money and funding. Otherwise, meeting formats are designed at
the discretion of each meeting.
