Directions
The Recovery Community Center at Eva’s Village is a recovery-oriented sanctuary in the heart of downtown Paterson, NJ. Since it opened in 2009, more than 10,000 people looking for recovery treatment and support have walked through our doors.

Our Center is a volunteer peer-to-peer run center –not a treatment program. We support long-term recovery by offering resources, links to community services, and programs that help restore physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual health and help individuals build a network support to help each person move towards a independent and purpose-filled life.

Our Center provides a welcoming and safe place for people seeking recovery before, during and after treatment, and throughout their ongoing recovery journeys. We believe there are many roads to recovery and we support each individual’s right to choose the path that best meets their own personal preferences, needs, and values.

Services & Activities include:
  • Pre-treatment recovery support and case management
  • Information and referrals for social services and treatment, at Eva’s Village and in the community
