Recovery Through Community & Wellness
Groundwork is a community centered recovery and wellness initiative developed through North Austin Foundation.
The purpose of Groundwork is to create accessible opportunities for individuals in recovery and the broader community to reconnect with themselves, build supportive relationships, explore wellness practices, and strengthen stability through meaningful engagement.
Groundwork focuses on creating welcoming, low barrier community experiences that support recovery, personal growth, emotional wellness, creativity, and connection.
Our Approach
We believe recovery support should extend beyond meetings and crisis response.
Healing and long-term stability are strengthened through connection, routine, creativity, movement, education, and community support.
Groundwork is designed to help create those opportunities through collaborative programming, peer connection, and wellness-focused community events.
Groundwork May Include
• Wellness workshops
• Creative recovery programming
• Art and community events
• Peer-support initiatives
• Community resource events
• Life-skills programming
• Volunteer opportunities
• Recovery-focused education
• Collaborative wellness activities
• Mindfulness and self-care practices
• Community connection gatherings
Programming may continue evolving based on community needs, partnerships, volunteer involvement, and organizational growth.
Community Centered Recovery
Groundwork is rooted in the belief that recovery happens through community.
Our goal is to create spaces where people feel supported, connected, and encouraged as they navigate recovery, rebuild stability, and strengthen wellness.
We recognize that recovery looks different for everyone, and meaningful support can take many forms.
Partnerships & Collaboration
Groundwork continues to grow through collaboration with community organizations, volunteers, wellness practitioners, peer support advocates, and recovery-focused partners throughout Austin.
We welcome opportunities for collaborative programming, workshops, volunteer involvement, and community partnerships aligned with our mission and values.
Get Involved
Whether you want to attend an event, volunteer, collaborate, teach a workshop, donate supplies, or support future programming, we would love to connect.
Community support helps make recovery focused wellness programming possible.
