2012 Recovery Community Messaging Traing Dates

Growing numbers of people in recovery and family members are talking about their recovery – to family members, employers and friends – and in the media. Sometimes they are giving “human interest” to a story or creating media stories because of the work that they are doing in their communities. The media help us reach policy and decision makers; educate the public and recruit new members to our growing movement.

Training Materials:

Media directly affects how people feel, think, and act. Sharpen your skills as a recovery communicator, strategize with other recovery leaders, then take home new tools that you can use in your community.

Here's what people are saying about our trainings...

  • "Great format, great material, great facility and host." - Roger Maryatt

  • "...this was a very informative training for media, especially the focus on the one voice message of "Long Term Recovery Works and I am a living example." - Carl Matthews
  • "As intended, it will be useful with the media - but I believe it will be useful, as well in working with government groups, treatment providers, etc - techniques for conveying your message, staying on track, using bridging statements to steer conversation. Thanks." - Anonymous
