Recovery Coaches are an important member of a person’s recovery support network, providing motivation, encouragement, and support during difficult emotional states. This training will provide you with the strategies for cultural competence, effective communication, motivational enhancement, and crisis intervention. Emphasis is placed on the skills needed to link people in recovery to needed supports within the community. NSCC’s intensive multi-day training is designed and approved by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health’s Bureau of Substance Addiction Services and fulfills the required coursework necessary to become a Certified Addiction Recovery Coach.
Students who successfully complete this certificate may be eligible to use credit for prior learning to save time and money on NSCC’s for-credit Substance Addiction Counseling Certificate.
