III. WORD FROM THE FOUNDER 2015 - 2016ANNUALR E P O RT

Coaching With Substance

We nurture public trust by holding ourselves to the highest standard of performance, ethics and confidentiality. Our exceptionally low overhead means that more money is directed to serving the community by providing further encouragement, education and the means of prevention. To date we have not been able to secure government funding for our coaching services but our community network continued to support us in referring their loved ones who need transformation.

A highlight for the year is the confirmation of candidature for my Doctoral Studies (20 April 2016), which means that I am officially in research mode as I uncover the effects of Collaborative Peer Recovery Coaching in people with poly drug use issues, that also have depression, anxiety or bipolar issues

On the social front, we have cultivated many Facebook groups and pages so that we can reach those that are unable or unwilling to seek traditional help. We also have more face to face interac-tionswith clients as we open our doors for meditation and recovery networking weekly.

We hope you enjoy reading our productive journey for the 2015-2016 Financial Year. Help us contin-ue to serve our community, keeping it safe from the harms of behavioural addiction and substance abuse by referring to us, those that need our services, so we can keep doing what we do best.

Last of all, we are eager to take our service to more people, hence donations are always putto wonderful use. All donations (over $2) are fully tax-deductible, our donations portal has already raised over $60,000, go to: www.givenow.com.au/coachingwithsubstance

Coaching With Substance

The University of Queensland has awarded Maria Pau, Founder of Coaching with

Substance a Confirmation of Candidature to officially continue her research on the impact

of Collaborative Peer Recovery Coaching on those with co-morbid (depression, anxiety,

PTSD, ADHD) polydrug use and abuse issues on the 20th of April, 2016. She has also sub-

mitted her Ethics application and this has also been approved which means she is in her

second year of her Doctoral Studies and due to finish her dissertation by mid-2018.

This study will provide important data on coaching drug and alcohol clients, which may be

duplicated elsewhere. The findings from this dataset can be a catalyst for a deeper insight

into the influences of coaching for Australians suffering problematic drug and alcohol use

behaviours. It examines the client’s willingness to abstain and how motivated they are in

achievement of abstinence goals. Her study will examine the coaching sessions and the

transcripts of these coaching sessions (over 3500 pages of transcripts) to study the impact

of Collaborative Peer Recovery Coaching on recovery capital resources and abstinence.

people) and service delivery numbers (107 individuals transformed through coaching or training). Keeping the overheads low was possible through the work of our Founder, who volunteers her time and the other Board Members who give generously, as well. Outsourc-ing work through Upwork and hiring people from the Philippines also keeps the salaries very low, where casual marketing staff that would have cost $30,000 a year is only setting us back a few thousand.
