About Us

The South Edmonton Fellowship Centre is a welcoming facility with a growing cohort of volunteers dedicated to helping those in need of recovery from a “seemingly hopeless state of mind and body” (Alcoholics Anonymous, 4th Edition, p. xiii). With no paid employees, the Fellowship Centre includes: 1) a dedicated phoneline, 2) a monthly newsletter, 3) a recovery library, 4) a Facebook page, 5) social events, 6) Twelve-Step mutual support addiction recovery meetings, and 7) mental health and addiction support meetings. Officially opened on November 25, 2021, it is run entirely by unpaid volunteers. Approximately 250 people are helped each week; some have been clean and sober for decades; others are hoping to change the way they are living and coping with life. 

Our Purpose

The objectives and purpose of the South Edmonton Fellowship Centre are to:

  1. provide a meeting place in South Edmonton where recovering alcoholics and recovering addicts may gather to exchange ideas and enjoy the fellowship
  2. provide a site for peer-to-peer recovery meetings, workshops, seminars, and conferences
  3. provide opportunities for public and family involvement in the processes of recovery from alcoholism and addiction
  4. provide information on alcoholism and addiction and on methods of recovery
  5. provide recovery-oriented social activities in a non-drinking, non-drugging environment
  6. affect its purpose without discriminating as to race, colour, national origin, creed, gender, or sexual orientation

Our Vision

The South Edmonton Fellowship Centre strives to provide, at no cost, community-based addiction recovery support in a safe and welcoming facility. The assistance offered includes mutual recovery support where those with considerable recovery time voluntarily help those with less or no recovery time. The Government of Alberta considers such voluntary addiction recovery  support an essential service to preserve life, health, and public safety.
