The hardest part of recovery is showing up every day.

Especially on the days no one else is checking in. Formal help keeps business hours. Recovery does not. The Recovery Companion gives you a structure to follow, in your pocket, on the schedule you actually have.

What the app does

A day you can actually follow

Not a feed to scroll. A short, ordered set of things to do each day, the same rhythm every day, so the habit carries you on the days willpower does not.

A 120-day guided practice

A day-by-day program with a morning intention and an evening reflection, built as a secular parallel to the twelve steps.

Lessons that explain it

Short daily lessons on alcohol, the brain, anger, grief, relationships, and money, with written questions you answer yourself.

Something for the hard hour

A craving at 3 a.m., a payday, a fight, the drive past an old spot. Open the toolkit and there is a script for the exact moment you are in.

Real help, one tap away

The Veterans Crisis Line, 988, and SAMHSA's treatment locator are always a single tap from any screen, any hour.

What is inside

Written for this, not licensed from somewhere else

Every reading, lesson, and script in the app was written for Healing Nations Foundation. Nothing here is a repackaged workbook.

120

Days of guided practice

An intention each morning and a written reflection each night, arranged in themed blocks.

164

Education lessons

Across 24 subject areas, from addiction and the brain to anger, grief, and rebuilding trust.

365

Daily meditations

A thought and a meditation for every day of the year, so the practice keeps going after day 120.

18

Crisis scripts

Step-by-step responses for the specific moments that put recovery at risk.

The Recovery Companion is a wellness and peer-support tool. It does not diagnose or treat, and it is not a substitute for professional care or a crisis line.

For courts, counties, and agencies

Accountability the court can rely on, evidence the participant earns.

Alongside the free companion, we are building a supervised tier for DUI and drug courts, probation departments, and county programs. Every completed step is written to an append-only log with a server timestamp, and it comes out as a compliance and effort report a supervising officer can receive.

The same report gives the participant something a paper file never did: a dated, quantified record of the work they put in, which they or their attorney can put in front of a court.

Where this stands: the participant app, the monitor portal, and the compliance and effort report are built and in testing, including two-factor sign-in, a caseload view, an audit log, and export to PDF and CSV. We are selecting our first county partners now, and there is still room for them to shape it. Supervision decisions are always the court’s; a record supports a request, it does not produce an outcome.

What the supervised tier gives a monitor

  • Daily completion by station, with server-side timestamps rather than the phone's clock
  • A compliance and effort summary over any date range, as PDF or CSV
  • Meeting attendance with an in-app chairperson signature, clearly marked self-reported
  • Completion metadata by default, not journal contents, so participants keep their privacy
  • One authorized make-up day per month, logged as a make-up, never as a same-day completion

Always free for those who served.

The Recovery Companion is, and will remain, free for every veteran, active duty service member, National Guard and Reserve member, and first responder. Cost will never be the reason someone goes without support.

The supervised court tier is paid for by the courts, counties, and agencies that use it. Individuals are never charged, and revenue from that tier goes back into keeping the companion free.
