Ethical Considerations

The Southwestern Regional Day Report Center is proud to offer all-expenses-paid CCAR Ethics Training. Recovery Coaches play an important role in the recovery process by creating connections with those they serve in deeply meaningful ways. Through these connections, which may include the sharing of personal stories and elements of their own recovery journey, Coaches mentor and inspire those looking for, or are in recovery, with a great deal of success. With such responsibility comes the need for clear boundaries – both personally and professionally. This 16-hour training focuses of the ethical challenges Recovery Coaches face while providing a framework for creating good boundaries that allow for the same level of connection without causing harm.
