Recovery continues to be a radical concept within the world of addiction and behavioral health services. SAMHSA has identified the new standard for the addictions/behavioral health workforce to be 25% peer. Therefore, as peer programs are being developed, the integrity of the peer recovery model and its Supervision is crucial to the efficacy and impact of the peer recovery support services provided.

Objectives

• Understanding/comprehend the peer recovery model;
• Practice implementing peer recovery concepts;
• Explore the different peer roles within potential service delivery settings; and
• Practice supervision within the scope of recovery principles.

Like coaching, supervision is a practice. Knowing and understanding critical concepts is just the beginning. Peer Recovery Workforce Supervision is designed so that its implementation is practical facilitating skill building and developing your art of supervision.
