More than a punch card. Coffee Club members get after-hours access, a personal cup on the rack, and a voice in how the clubhouse runs.
The Coffee Club is for people who want to make The Fort part of their regular recovery rhythm. The monthly fee covers a small share of rent, coffee, and supplies, and it makes you a recognized member of the clubhouse community.
Membership is open to anyone in recovery. Call Ralph to sign up, or stop by during open hours.
Coming soon: Online sign-up and recurring payment.
A few starting points. No judgment, no pressure. Anyone is welcome to simply walk in during open hours and have a cup of coffee.

A clubhouse, not a back room — in Northern Colorado, supporting every path of recovery.
The Fort Recovery is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to providing a safe, accessible, and welcoming meeting and gathering space in Northern Colorado. Its mission is to foster connection, host essential recovery meetings, and support individuals on their journey to overcome addiction.

Most recovery meetings rely on borrowed space — church basements, library back rooms, rented hours. The Fort exists to be a permanent, dependable home for those meetings.
Our building provides a comprehensive and family-oriented environment designed to support healing. With its versatile layout, it balances community connection and privacy.
Designed for group meetings and gatherings. This open space fosters peer connection, allowing individuals in recovery to thrive and share in a safe environment. Unwind with a book from our small library, play a tune on the piano, or choose from a variety of games available for your relaxation.
A private space dedicated to one-on-one sponsor/sponsee talks or small-group discussions.
