In Their Words

Real Members, Real Experiences

So many spaces are centered around recovery itself and the structure of programs. What SCB has created feels entirely different and is built around connection, joy, and the idea that life can still be beautiful, social, vibrant, and deeply fulfilling without alcohol at the center of it.

Brittany

When I got sober, I had decided for my own reasons that I didn’t want to be 'a meeting guy,' but when I stumbled upon Sober & Curious Boston, I knew I had found my network. Not only have I made friends, I’ve rediscovered old hobbies and found new ones — it’s been one of my best resources.

Eric

I love this group because it gave me so much more than fun events, it gave me community. The friendships I've built, the support I have received, and the joy I've found have truly filled my cup. I couldn't be more grateful to be part of something so special.

Tanya

Love the warm, smart, fun, and, above all, sober people at the amazing events!
