Recovery is Personal and Continual

Recovery is a process of change through which individuals improve their health and wellness, live self-directed lives, and strive to reach their full potential. Hope, the belief that these challenges and conditions can be overcome, is the foundation of recovery.

A person’s recovery is built on his or her strengths, talents, coping abilities, resources, and inherent values. It is holistic, addresses the whole person and their community, and is supported by peers, friends, and family members.

The process of recovery is highly personal and occurs via many pathways. It may include clinical treatment, medications, faith-based approaches, peer support, family support, self-care, and other approaches.

Recovery is characterized by continual growth and improvement in one’s health and wellness and managing setbacks. Because setbacks are a natural part of life, resilience becomes a key component of recovery.
