Peer Recovery Support offered at Health and Justice Recovery Alliance

Mutual support groups whose members are individuals who have a disorder involving the use of drugs including prescription drugs and over-the-counter medication. The groups meet in-person, by telephone or via the Internet; provide emotional support, information and resources to help participants overcome their disorder; and may include faith-based and secular 12-step groups as well as non-12 step groups, and groups for anesthetists, pharmacists, psychologists, physicians or other health care professionals who are recovering from a drug use disorder.

Drug Use Disorder Support Groups

Programs that connect individuals who have a substance use disorder with a recovery coach who supports patients, family members and treatment personnel in launching the individual's recovery process or stabilizing recovery when needed. While they don't provide clinical services, recovery coaches, as people with lived addiction recovery experience, demonstrate that people can recover. They offer guidance in creating and following through with a recovery plan that reflects the individual's goals, provide support through the inevitable ups and downs, and hope to those living with an alcohol or drug use disorder. Some hospital emergency departments have outside recovery coaches on call, who connect with the client following an opioid overdose or other alcohol or drug related medical crisis. In other cases, clients are introduced to a recovery coach when they begin treatment in an inpatient program or at a community based outpatient treatment facility, or are connected through other channels e.g., outreach programs. Some people engage a recovery coach as a first step to help them figure out what other type of professionals/services they need while others get a recovery coach after rehabilitation to help them make the transition home and continue to support their sobriety.

Substance Use Disorder Peer Recovery Coach Services

Mental health agencies, counseling centers and independent, peer-run organizations that offer, as a component of their programming, the services of peer support providers with "lived experience" who have been trained and certified to work with individuals experiencing mental health concerns or psychological trauma. Peer support specialists work with individuals as they develop and implement a personal recovery plan, which can also serve as a contract for engagement, and function as a complement to traditional clinical care. Tasks may include assisting their peers in articulating their goals for recovery and learning and practicing new skills, helping them monitor their progress, supporting them in their treatment, modeling effective coping techniques and self help strategies based on their own recovery experience, and supporting them in advocating for themselves to obtain effective services. Peer support services are an evidence-based mental health model of care that is recognized by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) as an important component in the delivery of effective treatment.
