Summary:This white paper has been developed as a resource for States, organizations, and communities embarking on systems-change efforts to develop recovery-oriented system. Each State, local government, community, and organization encounters a unique set of opportunities and challenges when it commits to developing recovery-oriented systems of care. Nonetheless, there are many broadly applicable lessons that can be drawn from the experiences of other States and communities. Developing and implementing recovery-oriented systems of care are rewarding, difficult, and complex processes. This process is relatively new to the addictions treatment and recovery field, and minimal information is available to guide States, communities, and organizations wishing to develop recovery-oriented systems of care. The case studies presented in this document provide examples of recovery-oriented approaches at various stages of development. Using the principles and elements as the framework, this white paper will highlight the activities and operations of two statewide systems and one city system that have taken steps toward the development of recovery-oriented systems of care.
