Recovery Supports

Recovery supports help people who are being treated for addiction and their families. These tools are part of ongoing care and important for long-term health and wellness.

Recovery supports are personalized and cover four key areas – health, home, purpose and community. These supports may include programs, services, and support from family and friends.

Recovery supports are not a replacement for medical treatment. They are tools to help people rebuild their lives after addiction, achieve their goals and prevent a relapse.
