About Us
The objective of Pepper Diet Academy (a non-profit organization registered in the State of California), is to provide a sober, safe, and nurturing retreat environment — both by, and for men recovering from alcoholism and addiction — to connect.
The primary purpose of our PDA volunteers is to help men in recovery develop their relationship, communication, and intimacy skills while maintaining sobriety. We do this by providing learning opportunities to explore a deeper understanding of one’s erotic, sexual-self, and inter-personal well-being.
