RELAPSE PREVENTION & RECOVERY CAPITAL
"These programs are so important to help Mother's like myself who are on this healing path to prevent relapse and mental health issues from getting out of control."
What is Recovery Capital?
The volume of internal and external assets that can be brought to bear to initiate and sustain recovery from alcohol and other drug problems. Recovery capital, or recovery capacity, differs from individual to individual and differs within the same individual at multiple points in time. Recovery capital also interacts with problem severity to shape the intensity and duration of supports needed to achieve recovery. This interaction dictates the intensity or level of care one needs in terms of professional treatment and the intensity and duration of post-treatment recovery support services.
Linda Lane Devlin of Interventions On Demand will break down these concepts into simple solutions that we can implement in our recovery.
This program will be facilitated by Linda Lane-Devlin Addiction Specialist, Certified Counsellor, Interventionist, CIP, I.C.A.D.C. and C.C.C.S. of Interventions on Demand with special guests Jessica Cooksey MA ICADC, Operations Manager, Last Door Recovery Society.
