The Department of Mental Health (DMH) contracts with recovery support providers and substance use treatment providers to deliver statewide services. Recovery support programs offer services such as care coordination, recovery coaching, spiritual counseling, group support, recovery housing and transportation to support individuals in their unique recovery pathways. These services can occur independently of, or in coordination with, other substance use disorder service providers. These services are offered in a variety of settings including community, faith-based and peer recovery organizations.
