Join us in this collaborative journey toward excellence in recovery support services. Your active participation will contribute to a thriving community of practice.

Who Should Attend? Peers, supervisors, employers, project directors, and anyone passionate about fostering rural recovery excellence. This is your opportunity to network, exchange resources, and gain valuable insights from recovery experts.

Highlights:

  • Diverse Topics: Explore a broad range of recovery support services.
  • Networking: Connect with like-minded individuals from diverse roles.
  • Resource Exchange: Share and receive valuable tools for success.
  • Expert Guidance: Benefit from the experience of Donald McDonald, our seasoned recovery professional.

Recovery Office Hour is facilitated by JBS Technical Expert Lead Donald McDonald – a person thriving in sustained recovery from severe mental and substance use disorders. He has provided peer services in an opioid treatment program and a social model residential recovery program, and he has supervised peers in the statewide Recovery Community Organization he helped found. When he became executive director of his home state’s addiction professional trade association, he opened membership to peers and organized peer training tracks at its semi-annual conferences. In that position, his mandate included supporting the implementation and expansion of collegiate recovery programs and recovery high schools. He has been providing peer recovery training and technical assistance nationally for the last five years. Donald is a social worker with a Recovery Coach Professional (RCP) credential through the Center for Addiction Recovery Training.
