Recovery Training Series 2009
The emphasis of this CCAR training initiative is to provide recovery promotion services through comprehensive training and technical assistance to help people sustain their recovery, improve their quality of life and become better resources for the community at large. What is unique about this training is the target audience: the recovery community made up of persons in recovery, family members, friends and allies. This segment of the population is rarely targeted for any kind of service and CCAR is proud to offer this community educational series.

Family Night
An alcohol and drug addiction education and support program for members of the community, people in recovery and or their families. Each Recovery Community Center will offer one evening a week where family members can meet to learn about addiction and recovery and share their experiences.

Becoming a CCAR Ambassador (CCAR 101)
Since 1997, CCAR has emerged as a well-respected, highly visible and vibrant grassroots organization that includes persons in recovery, their family members, friends and allies. Simply, we seek to "put a face on recovery". What does it mean to be a CCAR Ambassador? We will answer this and other questions as more and more volunteers want to reach out, give back and support the vision and goals of CCAR. Join us for a deeper understanding of the history, vision, mission, values and goals of this vibrant organization and an increased commitment to representing CCAR and its efforts. Required training for CCAR volunteers.

CCAR Volunteer Orientation
The purpose of this training is to address the policies and procedures for being a CCAR volunteer. After this training, volunteers will have a clear understanding of CCAR’s recovery center values and ethics, the policies and procedures, the nuts and bolts of advocacy and recovery service. This orientation is compulsory for all CCAR volunteers.

Telephone Recovery Support Training
Share an hour of your time each week to call and support those new in recovery or anyone who desires extra support. Volunteers will call "recoveree's" once a week to offer support and help them maintain sobriety.

Volunteers will be asked to make a six month commitment. This includes completing CCAR's volunteer application and completion of additional volunteer trainings including CCAR Ambassador Training, Volunteer Orientation Training.

A great way to give back to the recovery community!!

You must be a CCAR volunteer to participate.
