Save to Favorites

Do you have a green thumb or simply enjoy spending time outdoors? We’re looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help us nurture our community garden. This garden is used as a therapeutic space for group and individual sessions as well as a place to just take a deep breath. Whether you’re an experienced gardener or just eager to learn, your time and energy will make a big difference in creating a beautiful, thriving space for everyone to enjoy. Timing is flexible 8-5pm M-F.

Join us in cultivating not just a garden, but also a sense of community and connection. Let’s grow together!

Our focus at Above and Beyond Family Recovery Center is supporting our clients in their recovery journey by regaining control of their lives regardless of their economic status. As an outpatient, "walk-in", behavioral addiction treatment center focused on harm reduction, we are committed to meeting our clients where they’re at and addressing the broader context of their lives, including education, employment readiness, interpersonal relationships, and social reintegration.

Located in a welcoming and brightly lit building in Chicagoland, we work to achieve this goal with over 22 different weekly process groups on innovative topics such as Learning to Love Yourself, SMART Recovery, and Rage Reduction, along with comprehensive social service support. We pride ourselves on welcoming every client with a smile and fostering a highly professional and compassionate environment.

This is our quest, with an intended outcome of returning our clients to their birthright status of being responsible agents of their own destinies.
