CCAR RECOVERY COACHING TRAINING PLATFORM

CCAR Recovery Coach Training & Online Recovery Coaching Platform

At the heart of Coacherly is CCAR Recovery Coach Training, a nationally recognized program empowering individuals to provide effective, compassionate recovery support. Our online recovery coaching platform reflects the same values that have made CCAR a leader in the recovery movement—dignity, inclusion, and hope.

What Does CCAR Do, and Why Does It Matter?

The Connecticut Community for Addiction Recovery (CCAR) organizes and amplifies the recovery community—people in recovery, family members, friends, and allies—to put a face on recovery and provide peer-led support services. Through CCAR Recovery Coach Training, advocacy, education, and connection, we are transforming how addiction recovery is understood and experienced.

We strive to:

  • End discrimination related to addiction and recovery
  • Remove barriers and open doors to all recovery pathways
  • Support and sustain long-term recovery
  • Ensure dignity and respect for everyone in or seeking recovery

Our Core Values at CCAR

  • Recovery First: Recovery is the priority—always.
  • You are in recovery if you say you are
  • There are many pathways of recovery
  • Focus on recovery potential, not pathology
  • Err on the side of the recoveree—and generosity

Many people come to us overwhelmed by a system that has failed them. Through our CCAR Recovery Coach Training and compassionate philosophy, we meet people where they are and help them move forward with hope and direction.

We understand the importance of vetting coaches as we enter professional arenas. However, we believe that this process should not create additional barriers for individuals already facing challenges in their recovery journey. We strive to create an inclusive environment where all passionate individuals can access the training and support needed to become effective recovery coaches.
