LifeRing
Secular Recovery Society Canada
is an inclusive Canada-wide non-12 step abstinence-based organization focused on saving lives by following the secular principles of personal responsibility and self-determination.
LifeRing provides support and education for those confronting substance abuse and addictions; as well as those who are in relationships with them. In addition, LifeRing builds relationships with healthcare professionals, educators and community partners.
The LifeRing approach is open-ended, pragmatic, and evolved through experience, but it shares common tenets with Cognitive Behaviorism, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy,
Choice Theory and similar strength-based academic and clinical approaches. It is based on a three point philosophy of Sobriety, Secularity and Self-help.
