Our mission

Help and hope, every five minutes

Every 5 Minutes is a mission-driven addiction recovery and treatment navigation resource. We exist to make the first step easier for anyone affected by addiction.

Why we're here

Addiction touches millions of people and the families who love them. Too often, the hardest part isn't wanting help — it's knowing where to start.

We help people and families understand treatment options, insurance, and recovery resources, and we walk alongside them as they take the next right step. Reaching out to us doesn't commit you to anything. We're simply here to listen and help.

What we stand for

Safety first

A confidential, judgment-free place to ask questions.

Compassion

Real people who listen without shame or pressure.

Honesty

Clear information and no guaranteed-outcome promises.

If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 911. For a mental health crisis or thoughts of self-harm, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline). Every 5 Minutes is a recovery resource, not an emergency service.

Ready to take the next step?

Whether it's for you or someone you love, we're here to help you understand your options.
