Home is where recovery begins.
* Let's try to learn from our less creative approaches and not repeat our mistakes. We've learned a lot about what didn't work with the continuum of care concept, so let's move on to recovery-oriented housing opportunities for the people who use our services. * Let's move away from the concept of "placing" people. Let's ask people to decide where they want to live, and help them get there. The more involved they are in the planning and selection of their living plan, the more meaning it will have for them-and the more involved and invested they will be in maintaining it. * Let's not assume people need to be moved up and down a continuum. The less we move people the easier it will be for them to develop relationships and support systems that will help them maintain recovery. If there is any moving to do, let's move the staff instead. * Let's provide recovery-centered education that honors and respects people's strengths and ideas while building on their knowledge and skills for community living success.
