Delivering innovative addiction services by transforming the home into the treatment center.
Aware Recovery Care provides accessible recovery solutions by delivering innovative addiction services to those in need right where they live. Privacy and anonymity are respected, and dignity is preserved as they provide a full continuum of home-based care including withdrawal management (in-home detox), medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and management, individual therapy, family therapy, and coordinated medical and behavioral healthcare that is discreet and effective.
SHE RECOVERS® Foundation is delighted to enter into a mission-driven partnership with this innovator in addiction treatment.
A Trusted Resource and Champion of Recovery.
Aware Recovery Care is not only a SHE RECOVERS trusted resource and partner but is also the main sponsor of our 2023 signature event, SHE RECOVERS in CHICAGO, which will take place September 29 to October 1, 2023. We are honored to have the support of Aware Recovery Care to bring this three-day experience highlighting and celebrating strength, diversity, inclusion, and innovation to recovering women and and non-binary individuals who identify with women’s recovery communities.
Aware also made a $50,000 donation in support of SHE RECOVERS Foundation’s mission in 2022. SHE RECOVERS Foundation is grateful to Aware Recovery Care for their ongoing partnership and outstanding commitment to providing trauma-focused, in-home addiction treatment and mental health services to those in need.
“We are absolutely thrilled to be partnering with Aware Recovery Care so that we can work together to provide a continuum of accessible, individualized, responsive and evidence-based recovery solutions for women. We are grateful to be aligned with an organization that truly believes in a client-centered approach to treatment and meeting people right where they are at. We believe the in-home recovery treatment programming provided by Aware is unparalleled in their ability to provide holistic support that empowers recovering women to receive treatment in a way that best suits their lifestyle, needs, and respective recovery pathways and patchworks.”

About Aware Recovery Care
Their mission at Aware Recovery Care is to deliver compassionate and lasting solutions for addiction – helping people to “recover where they live.” They do this by transforming the home into a truly client and family-centered treatment environment where people are able to heal and find sustained recovery. They treat a broad spectrum of addictions as they would chronic illness, and their ground-breaking and evidence-based treatment approach provides comprehensive care from a multidisciplinary team of clinicians led by an addiction psychiatrist, a family systems therapist, a registered nurse, and certified recovery advisors. Aware helps their clients learn new skills and daily habits required to maintain abstinence while remaining amongst family and friends in their community, thereby avoiding the often-difficult return home from traditional treatment options.
Clients of Aware engage in a structured, 52-week biopsychosocial curriculum. This patient-centered and medically integrated in-home program is designed to ensure compliance and engagement, while preventing relapses/recurrences. They also offer the possibility of receiving longer-term recovery care.
Aware Recovery Care in-home services are available in Connecticut, Florida, Indiana, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Ohio, Rhode Island, and Virginia – which requires a Mobile Recovery Program – so, no matter where the client is, the Aware team is there.

WHAT WOMEN WANT: HELPING CLIENTS EXPLORE THEIR UNIQUE RECOVERY PATCHWORK
Sarah Benton, LMHC, LPC, AADC, Aware Recovery Care
Dawn Nickel, PhD, Co-Founder, SHE RECOVERS Foundation
How and to what degree individuals have accessed recovery from Substance Use Disorders (SUD) and related mental health challenges has changed significantly over the past several decades. Whereas in the past, there was generally one pathway recommended for individuals to follow, in this 21st century the concept of a recovery patchwork is gaining attention and traction. Importantly, the pandemic increased innovation in the self-help and treatment space and opened new options and ways to engage in them. There has also been a movement towards a more fluid and adaptive approach to recovery that leads to a more holistic patchwork of non-linear layers and choices. It is important for clinicians to feel comfortable supporting clients in more individualized recovery plans that could include shifting, adding, or changing self-help groups and clinical resources to adapt to their evolving recovery lifestyle needs. This presentation will provide a case example along with other strategies to best support our client’s recovery from dual diagnosis.
Learning objectives:
- Hear a case example of an individual moving from a recovery pathway to patchwork.
- Explore and describe how current mutual help and peer-led recovery programs can help or hinder women in or seeking recovery.
- Discuss long-term recovery as a lifestyle and the various life domain change and welness opportunities.
- Learn what individualized recovery patchworks may look like for clients versus a narrow recovery pathway.
- Learn strategies for helping clients to navigate and explore their personal recovery patchwork.
