WHAT:
Faces & Voices of Recovery is hosting a one-hour "Webinar" on peer recovery support services. Participants will listen and learn about these important supports for long-term recovery – what they are and how recovery community organizations are engaging the recovery community and allied organizations and individuals to develop and provide innovative and creative opportunities to sustain individuals in their recovery from addiction. 

After a 45-minute presentation, there will be a 15-minute question and answer period. This is the third in a four-part Faces & Voices "Webinar" series on a range of topics of interest to the recovery community – people in long-term recovery, their families, friends and allies.

SPEAKERS:

• Tom Coderre, Faces & Voices of Recovery, National Field Director
• Tom Hill, Health Systems Research, Senior Associate/RCSP Deputy Program Director
• Beverly Haberle, PRO-ACT (PA), Project Director
• Patty McCarthy, Friends of Recovery Vermont, Executive Director

WHEN:
Saturday, April 21, 2007 at 1:00 pm EDT. (All "Webinars" are archived and available for listening and viewing one week after their air date.)

WHY:
Across the country, recovery community organizations, many with assistance from the federal government's Recovery Community Services Program, are pioneering exciting new ways to support people newly in recovery from addiction. They are helping their friends and neighbors find a drug-free place to live, land a job, reconnect with family members, find low-cost dental care or get citizenship restored. This is an opportunity to find out how these programs work and what they mean for making it possible for people to get on with their lives.
