An Addiction Recovery Support Center offers a set of non-clinical, peer-led activities that engage, educate and support individuals and families successfully to make life changes necessary to establish, maintain and enhance recovery (health and wellness) from substance use disorders. The recovery activities are community-based services for individuals with a substance use disorder; and consist of activities that promote recovery, self-determination, self-advocacy, well-being, and independence.
Activities are individualized, recovery-focused, and based on a relationship that supports a person’s ability to promote their own recovery. Activities include social support, linkage to and coordinating among other service providers, eliminating barriers to independence and continued recovery. Activities may occur in the center or in other locations in the community.
Addiction Recovery Support Services are holistic in nature, support people with moving beyond their substance use disorder and toward a life of self-directed recovery.
During scheduled hours, Addiction Recovery Support Services may include but are not limited to the following support topics which may occur at a physical location or in the community.
