Recovery College Participant Testimonials
Recovery Colleges in Alberta have been modelled after successful Recovery Colleges in the UK, USA and Australia to provide early access to mental health supports through a range of courses that help develop resiliency, wellness, connection, belonging and hope. The peer approach assumes that people who have similar experiences relate better and can offer a more authentic support to their peers. Recovery is a paradigm of service delivery which places greater emphasis on people’s strengths and possibilities than on problems and deficits. Adopting a participatory, educational, and learning approach to service delivery, programs and services are provided as a resource for individuals to use in their recovery journey.
