RU Sacramento Addiction Recovery Program

Specialties

RU’s addiction recovery program is designed to help those struggling with hurts, habits, and hang-​ups by showing people the loving power of Jesus Christ through a recovery process. Our society is becoming more complex while sexual addiction, alcohol dependency, and drugs are crippling men and women across the country. By attending RU meetings and applying the biblical principles that are shared weekly, you will grow spiritually and become free from addictions and compulsive or dysfunctional behaviors. This freedom creates peace, serenity, joy, and most importantly, a stronger personal relationship with Jesus Christ and with others.

Regular meetings are held each Friday from 7:00pm to 9:15pm at Faith Baptist Tabernacle. All are welcome to attend. There is no cost to attend.

History

Established in 1996.

Steve Curington grew up in a Christian home and graduated from North Love Christian School in 1984. After high school, Steve started a 10-​year addiction to alcoholism and cocaine. After a serious car accident, Steve found complete sobriety through his relationship with Jesus Christ. After his recovery in 1996, Steve began Reformers Unanimous (RU), a faith-​based addiction ministry. What started as a humble, Friday night addiction class with four regular attendees in Rockford, Illinois, quickly exploded to a class of more than 300 people from the community.

As word spread, others began inquiring how to bring this program to their community. Soon, a national organization was launched; and shortly after that, the international arm was born. Today, there are more than 900 chapters throughout the nation and many more in twelve foreign countries. We are the RU chapter for the Sacramento area.
