The Castro Country Club, a sober meeting space with at least 34 12-step meetings a week, is scheduled to reopen on March 25, 2014 after renovations that started last December are complete. Renovations include a remodeled coffee bar, new paint jobs and wider meeting spaces.
According to the official website, the club has been around since 1983 and is a safe haven for LGBT recovering addicts and alcoholics. It is located at 4058 18th St. San Francisco, CA.
The club is currently open, housing meetings in the front of the building. Meeting types are posted at the front door. Topics at meetings range from discussion of personal experience to a sober kink meeting on Friday at 9:30 p.m.
According to a 2010 analysis by Closing the Addiction Treatment Gap Initiative, approximately 23 million Americans are addicted to alcohol and drugs. The state of Texas has a population of 29 million.
