Leadership Group
Advanced Recovery Program
AFAR’s Leadership Groups offer a safe and confidential space where individuals can actively address their recovery, receive education and advice from leaders in the sex addiction field, and connect with a true peer group for support and guidance.
Everyone
deserves recovery.
Each recovery path has different challenges.
For some, their celebrity status, notoriety, or profession in the community creates a challenge to successful recovery from sex addiction. Attending local meetings and groups is not a safe or viable option. These individuals deserve a safe and confidential space in which to do their recovery work.

Testimonials
The degree of sobriety and the devotion of individuals in dealing with the most challenging circumstances in life without acting out has been an inspiration to me in my personal journey. I have only come to fully understand the true definition of recovery by being part of this fellowship.
AFAR Leadership Group is the capstone of my recovery. The unique fellowship cannot be found anywhere else. The quarterly retreats and regular check-ins keep me on the right path and growing in my recovery.
The AFAR leadership group helped to surround me with men grounded in their own long-term successful recoveries. Consequently, I have been motivated to model my journey in the same way. The combination of in person and virtual meetings has driven me to be the best I can be.
My involvement in AFAR began the weekend after completing PCS over 5 years ago. The combination of meetings and virtual follow up with the group has become the most important part of my recovery and continues to offer the support and accountability that other tools don’t.
