Recreation & Activities -Sober fun (any season) Having sober fun is a healthy offset to the intensity of chemical dependency care and is an- otherfactor at Riverplace in developing a sense of fellowship and balance. These opportunities take place on-site at Riverplace facilities, in the immediate area or individuals may prefer more organized recreation or activities such as various off site activities. Clients mostly enjoy the fellowship that comes from more informal visiting and sharing thoughts or feelings. Weekly AA, NA or CMA meetings are mandatory.

A computer lab is available at both the Men's and Women's facilities for job search.
