Person-centered practices provide a way for people to work
together to identify and support what recovery can be for
each individual. By seeking to understand where an individual
is in terms of interest and willingness to engage in the
planning process, you increase the likelihood of an individual
moving through the process of discovery and recovery.
A person-centered approach to recovery recognizes that:
Recovery is an individual journey forward. It is not
a process for attempting to return the person to who he
or she was before.
Recovery is not a linear process-people are where they
are in the course of their own journey of recovery. Recovery
is a process not a project
