80% of people leaving a substance misuse treatment center will relapse within the first year of discharge. 9 out of 10 of this 80% relapse within the first ninety days after discharge. Working with a recovery coach or a peer recovery support specialist can significantly reduce the likelihood of relapse during this crucial period. Recovery coaching and peer recovery support is the missing link, bridging the gap between an individual leaving a treatment center and maintaining long term sobriety. RECOVERY COACHING- A Guide to Coaching People in Recovery from Addictions gives readers something that hasn't been done before: a thorough explanation of recovery coaching and peer recovery support. First published in 2013, it was the first book on Recovery Coaching, since the field's inception in the 1990s. In this second edition, 100 new pages of information have been added. New ideas are presented that are aligned with the most up to date, state-of-the-art research on substance misuse models, examples of new recovery support practitioner jobs that are now available for those with recovery coaching experience, discussions about situations that a coach encounters with a patient revived from an opioid overdose and very important information on the medications used in medication-assisted treatment used in the battle against alcohol, opioid or methamphetamine misuse. The second edition of RECOVERY COACHING- A Guide to Coaching People in Recovery from Addictions demonstrates how using multiple contemporary treatment perspectives, including Motivational Interviewing, Harm Reduction, and the Recovery Management Model can be integrated to inform effective recovery coaching. Readers receive sobriety tools that can be used as a guide for the coach to truly support the person in their recovery process. Poignant, personal stories from recovery coaches pinpoint their struggles and solutions filling the book with additional information. This second edition includes the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) survey as well as a list of what a recovery coach should anticipate from a recovery coach supervisor. However, the resources do not stop there, the book gives practical business advice about how to set up a successful recovery coaching practice. This book will be an indispensable resource for the recovery coach or peer support specialist just starting out, the coaching veteran, and any addiction treatment professional.

There were more visits to peer support/self-help groups last year, than there were visits to the offices of mental health professionals. Peer support groups have exploded in popularity, as the public and the healthcare community recognize that they provide an effective complement to formal care, and improve the chance that many participants will have better healthcare outcomes. Few peer support/self-help group leaders have more than minimal training in how to lead a group successfully. This is unfortunate, as leading a self-help group is often challenging. This pocket resource is designed to provide easy access to key information and strategies to help Peer Specialists and other lay group leaders develop and expand their group facilitation skills so they can lead healthy thriving peer support groups.
