About Recover Wyoming
Located in Cheyenne, Wyoming, Recovery Wyoming is a nonprofit and recovery community organization that connects you to services and resources to help you or a loved one navigate drug or alcohol abuse disorders. While they don’t provide substance abuse treatment directly, they serve as a critical lifeline for individuals ready to seek treatment but who might be uninsured or unsure how to access quality care.
Accessible Recovery Support Services
One of their main services is linking people to recovery resources, including peer support services such as recovery coaches and telephone recovery support programs. These programs make services more accessible by offering support over the phone, allowing you to connect with peers who have successfully navigated addiction recovery and are living sober lives.
Their telephone recovery support programs operate statewide and accept referrals from individuals of all backgrounds including those with mental health struggles, incarcerated individuals, and family members concerned about a loved one. Facilitated through Recovery Wyoming, these programs are overseen by the Wyoming Department of Health’s Behavioral Health Division.
It’s important to note that peer recovery coaches are not sponsors, counselors, or medical professionals. Instead, they serve as guides, offering motivation, inspiration, and moral support when needed most.
Recovery Events For Additional Encouragement
Another nice thing about Recovery Wyoming is they host a variety of family friendly recovery events throughout the year. These events give you the opportunity to connect with others in the community who are also recovering from addiction and develop natural supports for continued healing.
