4 Faces & Voices of Recovery Changing public perceptions of recovery. Recovery is a reality. Advocating for effective public policy. Demonstrating that recovery is working for millions of Americans. It is our collective strength that will ensure our success, and it is our mission to bring the power and proof of recovery to everyone in America. 4
5 Governance Structure A Grassroots Campaign We are organized regionally and governed by recovery advocates from around the country. 5
6 Message of Hope Many of us have carried a message of hope on a one-to-one basis; this new recovery movement calls upon us to carry that message of hope to whole communities and the whole culture. We will shape the future of recovery with a detached silence or with a passionate voice. It is time we stepped forward to shape this history with our stories, our time and our talents. William White 6
7 Talking About Recovery There are some important things that we ve learned from our research about how to talk with people about recovery: Making it personal, so that we have credibility. Keeping it simple and in the present tense, so that it s real and understandable. Helping people understand that recovery means that you or the person that you care about is no longer using alcohol or other drugs by moving away from saying in recovery to saying in long-term recovery, talking about stability and mentioning the length of time that the person is in recovery. Talking about your recovery not your addiction. 7
8 Talking About Recovery MESSAGING OR LANGUAGE FOR A PERSON IN RECOVERY I m (your name) and I am in long-term recovery, which means that I have not used (insert alcohol or drugs or the name of the drugs that you used) for more than (insert the number of years that you are in recovery) years. I am committed to recovery because it has given me and my family new purpose and hope for the future, while helping me gain stability in my life. I am now speaking out because long-term recovery has helped me change my life for the better, and I want to make it possible for others to do the same. 8
9 Defining Recovery Recovery from alcohol and drug problems is a process of change through which an individual achieves abstinence and improved health, wellness, and quality of life. CSAT National Recovery Summit,
10 Defining Recovery Recovery is not simply sobriety. While sobriety is considered necessary for recovery, it (alone) is not considered recovery. The WHO measures six domains of recovery: physical, psychological, independence, social, environmental and spiritual. Betty Ford Institute Recovery Consensus Panel,
11 Supporting Local Recovery Advocacy Increasing access to research, policy, organizing and technical support Facilitating relationships among local and regional groups Improving access to policymakers and the media 11

16 Recovery Community Organizations Independent, non-profit organizations that are led and run by representatives of local communities of recovery on behalf of the recovery community. Public education putting a face and a voice on recovery Advocacy Peer-based and other recovery support services. 16
17 Recovery Community Organizations Over 175 recovery community organizations around the country Ranging in size/budget/scope: 3-5 members to 1,000s of members All volunteer/12 staff members No budget to over $500,000/year Local, regional, state 17

23 Recovery-based/oriented Systems of Care Treatment is part of recovery. Recovery is the larger construct. End point of treatment = absence of symptoms of clinical disorder. End point of recovery = holistic health 23
24 Recovery-based/oriented Systems of Care Full reengagement with the community means the elimination of policies that discriminate against people seeking or in new or long-term recovery Housing Voting Jobs 24
25 Recovery-based/oriented Systems of Care Peer Recovery Support Services (PRSS) are grounded in a strength-based approach that focuses on wellness and a full reengagement with the community. Building on capacities that already exists within individuals and communities. Making it possible for people to gain stability and create better lives Supporting individuals and their families to gain overall wellness 25
26 Supporting People in Recovery Long history of mutual support groups like AA/NA/faith-based groups Bridging gaps between professional/clinical treatment and long-term recovery Research shows that providing holistic community-based support services enhances treatment outcomes. 26
27 Supporting People in Recovery Help people initiate and sustain recovery and gain overall wellness by reengaging with their family and community. Maintain effective, formal linkages with community resources to support recovery. Support diverse pathways to recovery. Connecting individuals to the recovery community: people in recovery, families, friends, and community allies. 27
28 Peer Recovery Support Services (PRSS) PRSS are non-clinical services that assist in removing barriers and providing resources to those contemplating, initiating, and maintaining recovery Congressional Briefing on Peer Recovery Support Services and Faces & Voices Webinar on Peer Recovery Support Service available at 28
29 Peer Recovery Support Services (PRSS) PRSS support people in recovery or their family members who share the lived experiences of addiction and recovery to: Improve quality of life Prevent relapse Promote sustained, long-term recovery 29
30 Peer Recovery Support Services (PRSS) PRSS are made available throughout the continuum of care: Pre-treatment During treatment Post-treatment As an alternative to treatment During incarceration 30
31 Peer Recovery Support Services (PRSS) Draw on the power of example and lived experience. Largely voluntary: draw on the desire to give back. Based on the notion that both of the people who are in a relationship based on mutuality are helped and empowered. 31
32 PRSS Provide Social Support Social support appears to be one of the potent factors that can move people along the change continuum. (Hanna, 2002; Prochaska et al, 1995) Social support has been correlated with numerous positive health outcomes, including reductions in drug and alcohol use. (Cobb, 1976; Salser, 1998). Four types of social support (emotional, informational, instrumental, companion) have been identified. 32
33 Examples of PRSS Assistance in finding housing, educational, and employment opportunities Assistance in building constructive family and personal relationships Life skills training Health and wellness activities Assistance managing systems (e.g., health care, criminal justice, child welfare) Alcohol- and drug-free social/recreational activities Culturally-specific and/or faith-based support 33
34 PRSS: Population Specific Women Self-defined groups by culture: race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or religion Co-occurring disorders Formerly incarcerated Trauma survivors Families Age 34

36 Bringing Voices and Visibility to Recovery Friends of Recovery- Vermont June 2007
37 Our Mission Friends of Recovery-Vermont promotes the power of long term recovery to improve the quality of life, health and wellness of Vermonters. FOR-VT believes there are many paths to recovery which lead to rejoining and rebuilding a life in the community for everyone. 37
38 Since 1998, Friends of Recovery- Vermont has been building a strong recovery community organization. We have engaged many people in recovery from alcohol and drug addiction and have provided a voice for this community of people that has traditionally remained anonymous. 38
39 FOR-VT Activities FOR-VT is a clearinghouse for recovery information through a website, list serve, and a quarterly newsletter. FOR-VT connects individuals seeking support for themselves, their families and friends, through information, referrals, workshops and forums. FOR-VT advocates for the recovery community on state and community level committees and coalitions by bringing awareness to the need for a full range of adequately funded recovery support services within the continuum of prevention, intervention, treatment, continuing care, and recovery. 39
40 FOR-VT Activities FOR-VT supports the development of community recovery centers (peer run centers across Vermont) where integrated services can be provided. FOR-VT brings visibility to the recovery movement by holding an annual Recovery Day legislative awareness event at the State House in Montpelier. FOR-VT offers recovery events such as dinners, dances, performances, and celebrations, including promotion of September as National Alcohol and Drug Addiction Recovery Month 40
41 FOR-VT is building a membership organization Peer- led (advisory board and membership) Membership through annual contributions Individual ($20), family ($35) and organization ($50) 1600 individuals and organizations (paid and non (paid and non- paid members) 41

43 Vermont Integrated Treatment Initiative (VISI) October 2006 Development of Peer Groups, Leaders and Advocates for Co-occurring occurring Substance use and Mental Health Services This collaboration between FOR-VT and the VT Psychiatric Survivors, two consumer-run run advocacy organizations, has begun to e educate, train and support individuals with co-occurring occurring disorders, and others providing peer services. Focus groups, planning committees, video education groups, and peer leader development has begun in several regions of Vermont with the plan to be statewide over the next year. 43
44 FACES Project Families and Adolescents driving Care for Effective Services May 2006 FOR-VT and the VT Federation of Families for Children s Mental Health have become partners in this new initiative made possible through the Adolescent Treatment Enhancement Grant. This SAMHSA grant was awarded to the VT Department of Health to redesign the adolescent treatment system, making it more accessible and effective for Vermont families. FACES provides advocacy and education opportunities through regional groups, currently in Central Vermont, White River Junction and Rutland County. Expansion into Middlebury and Bennington is planned for Spring
45 Social Marketing October 2006 FOR-VT received a small grant from the Vermont Community Foundation to conduct a social marketing campaign to bring awareness to recovery from addiction. The two campaigns we will be using are Silent Treatment and Recovery is Everywhere.. This fall, Recovery is Everywhere posters were placed on the outside of the Green Mountain Transit busses traveling the busy route of the Barre-Montpelier Road for over three months. 45
