As people with lived experience of addiction and recovery, peer recovery coaches are often the lynchpin to engaging people in opioid use disorder treatment and helping them rebuild their lives. Many states, as well as healthcare and recovery organizations, have significantly increased the use of this workforce over the past decade. FORE is engaged in efforts to explore the unique challenges and experiences of peer recovery coaches across the United States so that a strong, effective workforce is developed.
