Show Notes

Recovery to Practice (RTP) was launched by Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) in 2013 aimed at infusing recovery principles into six behavioral health professions: psychology, psychiatry, nursing, social work, peer support and addiction counseling. In 2015, the Hogg Foundation launched its own RTP grant program to disseminate the recovery curriculum throughout Texas. Since then, six organizations have received funds totaling $1.7 million. One grantee is the University of North Texas (UNT), Department of Disability & Addiction Rehabilitation. Program coordinator Carrie Breedlove, MS, LPC, joins the podcast to discuss how to bring recovery-oriented principles to the field of substance use.
