What this service offers

Recovering from Religion supports people dealing with doubts, belief changes, and life after religion through phone and web conversations, local and virtual groups, educational talks, and an online resource collection. Its services include connections to the separate Secular Therapy Project. The organization aims to provide round-the-clock peer contact but notes that a volunteer may not always be available. It is useful for faith transitions beyond cult-specific situations.
