| Celebrate Recovery Guidelines Celebrate Recovery maintains strict confidentiality. This promotes an atmosphere of trust and enables recovery.
Translated…we don’t talk about what is said in our Celebrate Recovery small groups, outside the walls of our small group. We are diligent about confidentiality and anonymity.
