“Journey to Sobriety“
Our mission is to BREAK THE STRONGHOLDS OF ADDICTIONS, “ONE COMMUNITY AT A TIME.” By elevating awareness of substance use disorder and prevention throughout our communities in Al, MS and other areas in the Gulf Coast, southern region states. Encouraging those in the community to support friends, family members and other individuals impacted by SUD by educating themselves. As well as providing a safe zone with resources to assist individuals facing the challenges of ADDICTIONS, RECOVERY and SOBRIETY!
We offer a range of services, including Peer to Peer Support, in addition, an Anonymous Recovery Peer Support Chat Line. Resources for rehabilitation, recovery options, legal help, and housing. AA/NA meetings, lifestyle/re-entry classes, food and clothing drives, daily reflections on the 12 steps via text. Community informative workshops, motivational outreach events and a Spiritual Guidance Program, interconnected to IAMU Village’s mission.
At I-AM-U VILLAGE, we understand that the journey to sobriety can be a lonely one. That’s why we’ve created a personalized group amongst peers, that provides individuals the support they need based on their life struggles and trauma. Our slogan, “YOU ARE NOT ALONE,” is a testament to our commitment to stand by your side every step of the way.

Sharing the Journey: Strengthening Each Other
I-AM-U VILLAGE was founded by Ray Roberts, a person in long-term recovery who understands firsthand the loneliness that can accompany the journey of recovery. Motivated by his personal experiences, Ray envisioned a community that would change the world’s view of individuals affected by substance use disorder (SUD), starting within our own community.
At I-AM-U VILLAGE, we reach out to those in recovery, providing them with a place where they will never feel alone. Our name, I AM U, reflects the mirror view of seeing oneself in others. We believe that by sharing our experiences, strengths, and hopes, we can provide mutual support and help each other on our journey of recovery, to SOBRIETY.
“No longer shall we be confined to the sidelines; we shall step forward, share our experiences and assert our voices, determined to be heard and valued as active participants in our community, creating a better tomorrow.”
Lets Make a Difference Together
At I-AM-U VILLAGE, we believe in the power of community and mutual support. No one should feel alone on their journey of recovery!
