The Recovery Project will expand the availability of effective peer recovery support services and integrate these services into hospitals, fire stations and other settings in Fall River, MA. - Steppingstone, Inc. (SS) is applying to SAMHSA’s 2020 Recovery Community Services Program solicitation for $1,500,000 to operate the proposed Recovery Project for a five-year grant term. The Recovery Project (RP) will expand the availability of effective peer recovery support services and integrate these services into hospitals, fire stations and other settings in Fall River, Massachusetts. The Project will serve 390 adult individuals with substance use disorders or co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders (SUD/CODs) over the fiver-year grant term. The RP will integrate peer recovery coaches into local hospital emergency rooms and inpatient units, Fall River Fire Department’s Safe Stations and Fall River’s emergency homeless shelter (owned and operated by SS). To engage seniors and veterans, two under served groups in our area, Recovery Coaches will perform outreach in local senior and veteran’s centers. The RP will coordinate with Fall River’s Emergency Response Team and Police Department to respond and provide peer recovery support following overdose and high-risk episodes. RP services include outreach and engagement, individual coaching and mentoring, peer-led support groups and activities, assessment of recovery capital, individual wellness planning, navigation support, employment coaching and family support. Treatment services will be accessible to RP participants within Steppingstone’s Continuum of Care (Outpatient, MAT, Residential) or other local providers through Affiliation Agreements. The goals of the RP are to: expand the availability of effective peer recovery support services and integrate these services into hospitals, fire stations and other settings in Fall River, Massachusetts; reduce substance use and harm by providing peer recovery support services to individuals with SUDs or CODs in Fall River; and promote other improved outcomes by supporting participants and connecting them with treatment, housing and other recovery support services.
