Overview
Mission
Recovery Dharma is a peer-led movement and community unified by our trust in the potential of each of us to recover and find freedom from the suffering of addiction. We believe that recovery means empowerment, and we support each other as partners walking the path together. Board Member “The Recovery Dharma Board of Directors, who serve at the behest of the Recovery Dharma global sangha, is gathered to ensure the ongoing existence of Recovery Dharma meetings and service throughout the world by functioning as a unified support to its members.” —RDG Mission Statement. “The Recovery Dharma Board of Directors, who serve at the behest of the Recovery Dharma global sangha, is gathered to ensure the ongoing existence of Recovery Dharma meetings and service throughout the world by functioning as a unified support to its members.” —RDG Mission Statement Governance.
What it reported doing in 2024
Our primary focus remained on supporting the core of our organization: the more than 800 Recovery Dharma meetings held in more than 12 countries and 6 languages. We successfully facilitated the smooth operation of these meetings, ensuring that individuals seeking recovery had access to vital resources and community support. In the summer of 2024, Recovery Dharma Global hosted an inspiring Sangha Summit in partnership with the Portland inter-sangha. This event brought together in-person and online members for a weekend of learning, fellowship, and deep connection.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of total spending goes to programs and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work.
