Life Beyond Treatment:
Recovery-Oriented Systems of Care
with William White and Ijeoma Achara
DVD Box Set

In the summer of 2009 the Southeast Addiction Technology Transfer Center and the Great Lakes Addiction Technology Transfer Center convened a two-day Recovery Oriented Systems of Care (ROSC) workshop in Atlanta, Georgia, featuring nationally-recognized speakers William White and Ijeoma Achara. The goals of this event aimed to highlight the emergence of recovery as an organizing paradigm for the addiction treatment field and to outline how frontline service practices change as systems of care & local addiction treatment programs shift from an acute care (AC) model of intervention to a model of sustained recovery management (RM). The workshop also aimed to identify the characteristics of a ROSC, explore the implications of ROSC for multiple levels of the treatment system, and to explain the advantages and limitations associated with different models of ROSC.

Each workshop session on this DVD has been broken down into smaller segments, or chapters, to facilitate usage of these materials for workshops and presentations, and to make it easier and faster to find specific areas of content related to ROSC. We also included a whole new section entitled “Supplemental Resources” that contains the latest ROSC research and resources including monographs, reports, and the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) “Definition of Recovery” and “ROSC Definition and Values” handouts. We hope that these materials will assist you in the effort to achieve system implementation of the core ROSC principles.
