Recovery Community Standards

RecoveryBuddy AI is dedicated to fostering a safe, respectful, recovery-focused, and supportive online community where individuals, Peer Recovery Coaches, Certified Recovery Specialists, sponsors, family members, healthcare providers, treatment organizations, and community partners can encourage one another and work toward healthier lives.

These Recovery Community Standards establish the expectations for participation throughout the RecoveryBuddy AI platform, including the website, mobile applications, WordPress plugin, AI services, recovery journals, messaging, recovery meetings, discussion areas, groups, comments, provider portals, organization dashboards, and all related services (collectively, the “Platform”).

Our mission is to create an environment built on trust, dignity, compassion, accountability, and hope.

Our Recovery Values

Every member of the RecoveryBuddy AI community is expected to support these values:

  • Hope

  • Respect

  • Compassion

  • Honesty

  • Accountability

  • Inclusion

  • Personal Responsibility

  • Recovery

  • Wellness

  • Service

  • Safety

  • Privacy

  • Integrity

  • Encouragement

Recovery is not identical for every person. We recognize and respect that individuals pursue recovery through different evidence-based pathways, treatment plans, support systems, faith traditions, and lived experiences.

Recovery Is Personal

RecoveryBuddy AI welcomes individuals at every stage of recovery.

Members should never be criticized, ridiculed, or excluded because of:

  • Their recovery pathway.

  • Length of sobriety.

  • Medication-assisted treatment.

  • Participation in counseling.

  • Participation in recovery meetings.

  • Treatment history.

  • Relapse history.

  • Family circumstances.

  • Personal background.

  • Health conditions.

We encourage respectful conversations that recognize recovery is unique to each individual.

Support Rather Than Judgment

RecoveryBuddy AI exists to encourage recovery—not to shame individuals.

Members are expected to:

  • Encourage others.

  • Offer hope.

  • Share lived experiences respectfully.

  • Celebrate recovery milestones.

  • Provide constructive encouragement.

  • Listen without judgment.

  • Respect personal boundaries.

Members should avoid language intended to embarrass, humiliate, ridicule, or discourage another person’s recovery journey.

Respect Every Person

Every community member deserves dignity and respect.

Treat others as you would wish to be treated.

Do not engage in:

  • Bullying.

  • Harassment.

  • Intimidation.

  • Threats.

  • Personal attacks.

  • Hate speech.

  • Discrimination.

  • Mocking another person’s recovery.

  • Shaming relapse.

  • Public humiliation.

Healthy discussion is welcome, but disagreements should remain respectful and constructive.

Confidentiality

Recovery often involves sharing deeply personal experiences.

Members are expected to protect the privacy of others.

Do not disclose another person’s:

  • Recovery status.

  • Personal history.

  • Medical information.

  • Behavioral health information.

  • Meeting participation.

  • Recovery journal entries.

  • Messages.

  • Contact information.

without that person’s permission or other lawful authority.

Respecting confidentiality helps build trust throughout the RecoveryBuddy AI community.
