You Are Not Alone

YANA was founded by a group of community members interested in supporting recovery efforts, an individual who rallied like-minded folks with a vision to provide a space like YANA for all recovering alcoholics and addicts in the region.

The YANA Center is within walking distance of downtown Keene at 36 Carpenter Street across from the Pat Russell Park, formerly Carpenter Field. The Center has a kitchen, community room, three designated meeting spaces and an area for quiet reflection or meditation.

YANA membership is open to individuals in recovery.

Everyone is invited to attend recovery meetings at YANA which happen every day of the week. The Center has hosted pizza and movie nights, summer barbecues, potluck dinners, a Night at the Swamp Bats baseball event, sober Super Bowl parties, a “free cycle” clothing and home goods swap, Narcan trainings, tobacco cessation sessions, substance-free holiday gatherings and recovery workshops for families and individuals.

The YANA Center is available for recovery-based groups to meet or to schedule substance free activities.

YANA was originally inspired by Gary Croteau, and we are grateful for his pioneering contributions. For more information about membership or scheduling a substance free recovery related activity at the Center, call 603-209-5033 or email yanacenternh@gmail.com
