A Recovery Coach serves as a personal guide and mentor to help individuals (recoverees) identify and navigate their individualized recovery journey and to live a self-directed life.

The Recovery Coach Supervisor will be a person who is grounded in peer-assisted recovery. This is a non-clinical, strength-based peer to peer support service in which the invaluable expertise that is gained from lived experience is drawn upon to inspire peers toward sustainable recovery.
