Return to Strengthen Peer Recovery Support Services & Programs
 

Potential Actions

  • Identify areas in the community that do not have peer recovery groups and look for organizations to provide spaces for the groups to meet.
  • Design marketing materials to advertise recovery support services available in local communities.
  • Develop a list of contacts for peer recovery organizations and create an E-mail list to send out information on tools or resources they may use or share.

 

Potential Partners

  • Faith Communities:
    • Offer your space for weekly recovery programs and self-help support groups[1]
    • Post your recovery program or self-help support group schedule on your community’s boards and publications. List them on United Way’s 211 exit disclaimer icon, or Drug Abuse.com exit disclaimer icon, for example. Show your community is supportive and committed to recovery.[2]
    • Offer people in need of free transportation to treatment and recovery support programs[3]
    • Create a resource center on your website listing local meetings, and post them on our social media channels.[4]
    • When offering public or congregational prayer, particularly prayers for the sick, pray for people who suffer from addiction/opioid use disorder.[5]
