Self Care for Recovery Coaches and other Peer Workers

Meets elective requirements for CARC recertification

Training Summary
Peer Support Workers & Recovery Coaches are tasked with helping others maintain a strengths-based, self-directed pathway of long-term, sustainable wellness. In the service of this work, peer workers often neglect their own needs. In this workshop, participants will explore the effects of work and life stress on one’s mind, body and spirit. This includes the impact of addiction, recovery and providing peer recovery support on individual self-care. The workshop will also address practical strategies for managing daily demands, stress release and developing a personal self-care plan and practice.

Learning Objectives
