Fondo Italo Peruano is a fellowship of people who have all suffered from drug addiction at some point in their lives. Now we have come together in our sobriety. We believe that any addict can quit using; they just have to want to.
We hope to have an atmosphere that makes people comfortable enough to share. There are common problems and standard solutions that can be hard to find otherwise. Talking to people who truly understand you can help along your recovery.
We meet regularly to help each other stay clean. That can mean daily or weekly. It is essential to keep going to meetings until you have a real handle on your life. That is because free time equals time you can get into trouble.
We do not affiliate with other groups, and we are a nonprofit. We don’t seek money at any point for any reason, that is a part of our rules. We do not discriminate based on age, gender, race, sexuality, religion or anything else. Our Rehab Center preaches acceptance, and we mean it.
