We have been asked by our affiliate, Facing Addiction with NCADD, to distribute surveys to any interested parties. The purpose is to understand which items contribute to recovery, and whether they can be associated with a certain phase of the recovery process. The data collected will be used to develop a measure to evaluate recovery progress of individuals as well as to assess providers and health plans’ effectiveness in supporting people recovery.
