"Addiction harms an individual's Spirit, mind, and body. True recovery focuses on healing all of the different aspects of ourselves that make us who we are. It is only through the Atonement of Jesus Christ and His gospel that we can be fully healed and freed from the bonds of addiction. The Addiction Recovery Program helps individuals overcome addictions through Jesus Christ and His Atonement. The Spouse and Family Support Guide helps spouses and family members of those overcome by addiction to find healing through the Savior, Jesus Christ, and the support of others."
