About 12 Step Recreation Association (TSRA) — likely the Denver, CO organization

TSRA began as the 12 Step Softball League (established in the early 1980s) and has expanded into a volunteer-run committee that organizes multiple leagues and recurring group activities for people in recovery. The association emphasizes sober, peer-led recreation as a tool for social connection and ongoing recovery.

TSRA operates open membership for adults in recovery and offers low-cost and scholarship-supported participation options. Public records and local league listings identify the Denver-based TSRA (often listed as '12 Step Recreation Association Inc') as a recreational nonprofit/social club rather than a charitable 501(c)(3).
