These innovators formed the organization we call SC SHARE and began self help support groups across the state. Over 60 groups have come and gone in our history. As needs and trends changed, some self-help support group members wanted more direction and guidance for living a life of recovery. In an effort to adapt to the needs of its members, SC SHARE developed a program called Recovery for Life: Helping Others Help Themselves.
