3 PURPOSE Welcome to the Texas Recovery Initiative (TRI) Criminal Justice Population Resource Guide. The guide was developed to assist individuals who provide Recovery Support Services (RSS) in identifying statewide services for the criminal justice population. The guide assists peer recovery specialists and coaches fulfill their role as a resource broker by linking those in recovery to positive recovery services throughout the state of Texas. 3

4 Vision for Texas Peer Recovery Coach: Criminal Justice Perspective To develop qualified Peer Recovery Coaches to work within the correctional and community substance abuse treatment setting serves as the center of our focus. The specialist will work along side licensed and certified substance abuse professionals to serve as mentors encouraging and training offenders to begin the process of becoming a Peer Recovery Coach while incarcerated by demonstrating and instilling the value that recovery is possible for every individual, family and community. Reciprocal respect between the licensed, certified professionals and the Coach and the recognition of the Coach s recovery is a vital credential that they bring to the field will be encouraged and established. Coaches will be trained in the delivery of evidenced based principles, and on-going skill development. Training shall adhere to the standards and requirements established by the Texas Certification Board of Addiction Professionals Board (TCBAP) for certifying Peer Recovery Coaches. Coaches will have the support, access, credibility, competency, respect and valued role within the correctional treatment environment and community treatment service delivery system to positively impact the lives of individuals experiencing addiction challenges. Utilizing the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Partner s Program; the Coaches will begin the process as an approved volunteer or Partner (see Volunteer Service Plan), with an overall goal of becoming mentors to offenders during their incarceration and throughout their recovery. 4

5 Becoming a Peer Recovery Coach The Peer Recovery Coach (PRC) credential standardizes qualifications of those working in peer recovery support within the field of chemical dependency, mental health, and/or co-occurring disorders. The following PRC credentialing guidelines have been developed by the Texas Certification Board of Addiction Professionals (TCBAP) following proposed IC&RC International Standards.
