EMPOWERING RECOVERY THROUGH EDUCATION AND TRAINING

September is Recovery Month!

September is Recovery Month and it is our favorite time of year here at the REC! Celebrations are happening across the state every weekend. Celebrations of recovery are celebrations of hope, life, family, and community. Recovery month is also celebrated on a national - and even on a global level. We hope you will take time out this month to join one of these celebrations – to celebrate your own recovery journey and everything you have accomplished, and to look forward to all that is ahead.

"With the right treatment, support, and resources, recovery is possible for everyone." - SAMHSA  

In-Person Recovery Coach Academies (RCA)

"The opposite of addiction is connection."

The recovery community has been asking for in person training, so we are excited to offer 2 opportunities to take the Recovery Coach Academy in person.*

If you are interested in attending, please contact massrec@baystatecs.org to be added to the list.

*You must have transportation and be able to attend all 5 days.

Lunch & Learn Recap

The REC team had a great time over the past few months connecting with the recovery community during our Lunch and Learn series. We visited 7 locations statewide and met with over 100 recovery peer support workers, leaders, and volunteers. Thank you to all our hosts AND to all the recovery coaches and recovery peer workers who came out to share a meal and learn more about the REC trainings, the platform, and what is coming up!
