  • Summary

    The organized recovery community includes individuals, family members and loved ones; professionals; and community stakeholders affected by substance use disorders and serves an important role in the creation, adoption, and maintenance of the infrastructure and policies that help support individuals living in or seeking to initiate recovery. As a relatively new socially organized community, the organized recovery community has bolstered efforts to create supportive services, such as recovery community organizations and peer recovery support services; implement recovery-informed systems design, such as recovery-oriented systems of care; enact recovery-centric policies, such as the Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act of 2016; and assist in the co-creation of a new branch of scientific discovery, recovery science. This chapter explores the origins, makeup, and real-world impact of the organized recovery movement in the United States.
