Welcome to Stepping Stones Recovery House-a place where hope is rekindled, strength is cultivated, and lives are transformed. We believe that recovery is not just a destination but a journey, and every journey begins with a single, courageous step. Our mission is to walk beside the women we serve, one day at a time, as they discover the resilience and potential within themselves.
Our Story
Stepping Stones Recovery House for Women is a non profit organization in the beautiful Comox Valley. We were founded in 2008 with a heartfelt mission to support women on their journey toward healing and recovery. Since our beginning, we have remained committed to providing a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment where women can rebuild their lives.
Today, Stepping Stones operates as a 12-step recovery-based program, supporting women who are seeking freedom from addiction and stability in their lives. Our approach emphasizes personal responsibility, peer support, and holistic healing, recognizing that recovery is not only about abstinence, but also about restoring connection, purpose, and self-worth.
For 18 years now, Stepping Stones Recovery House for Women Society has been proud to serve women in the Comox Valley and beyond. We continue to evolve, guided by lived experience, best practices in recovery, and a deep commitment to walking alongside women as they take courageous steps toward lasting change.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide a safe, supportive, and empowering environment for women in recovery. We are committed to helping each woman rebuild her life with dignity, confidence, and strength through comprehensive services, holistic support, and community. We offer a nurturing space where women can heal from addiction, discover their true potential, and cultivate a path toward lasting recovery.
Our Vision
Our vision is to:
- Create a compassionate, inclusive community where women reclaim their strength, heal from past challenges, and embrace a future of unlimited possibilities.
- We envision a world where every woman, regardless of her background, has access to the support and resources she needs to live a life of empowerment, well-being, and resilience.
- Strive to be a leading example of hope and transformation, inspiring women to reclaim their lives.
- Build a society where every woman in recovery is empowered to live independently and contribute positively to her family and community.
- We aspire to be the foundation women will lean on and look to for support until they are strong enough to move forward on their own.
Our Values
Our daily work is guided by a set of core values:
- Compassion: We meet everyone with kindness and understanding, no matter where they are on their journey.
- Integrity: We hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards in all that we do.
- Respect: We honor the dignity and worth of every individual.
- Growth: We believe in the transformative power of recovery and personal development.
- Community: We foster connection-within our house and in our community-because no one recovers alone.
