Testimonials

  • The best part about COR Retreat is the friendships I've made in recovery.

    -

  • The support found at COR was life changing. The amazing introduction to OA gave me the foundation and courage I needed to start going to meetings. As a person new to 12 step programs, it was so important for me to learn about the steps and have time to ask questions and understand before venturing out on my own

    -

  • The best part is finding the fellowship. Realizing there are others out there that share the disease. The worst part is giving up the isolation.

    -

  • The best part about COR Retreat is having the obsession of food be removed and getting peace of mind.
