Recovery Action and Progress Group Facilitator Guidelines
1. Group structure guidelines
1.1. Arrive early for group and have Outcome Rating Scales (ORSs) available as participants enter
1.2. For a 1 hour group: limit to 10 or divide into subgroups of 10
1.3. Prevent participant use of rulers before marking the ORS and Group Session Rating Scales (GSRS)
1.4. Provide a folder for each participant containing a RAP Group Handout, pen or pencil, name tag/tent, ORS, GSRS, Self-Completed Overview of Recovery Experience Board (SCORE Board), etc. See the Recovery Action and Progress Group Preparation Checklist.
1.5. Follow the instructions at the top of the RAP Group Handout
1.6. Facilitator’s role: model the OARS. Start the check-in process and use the OARS to assist with other check-ins
1.7. Each participant checks-in with one other participant
1.8. Encourage participants to show their SCORE Boards to illustrate progress over time
1.9. Affirm participant use of the OARS
2. Begin the first group with:
2.1. Thank you for coming today – I am glad to see each one of you.
2.2. Introduce yourself: What about you is important/credible 2.2.1. Peers: use a brief version of your recovery elevator speech and introduction
2.3. Please pull out your Recovery Action and Progress Group Handout. Let’s start by reviewing our group guidelines in the first section after the instructions….
2.4. We’ll do things a little differently than perhaps you’re used to because what is most important are your recovery goals, your view of how you are progressing in your recovery, and how well this group is working for you. I‘d like to get your feedback using a form called the Outcome Rating Scale that others found helpful in making this the best support group possible. Would that be OK with you?
2.5. Anyone forget their glasses or otherwise need help reading or writing? OK, who is willing to help with reading or writing? (Then, ask each participant who indicated needing help) Who among the volunteers would you like to help you?

Recovery Capital Scale & Plan
Modified and distributed with the permission of William L. White to George Braucht, Brauchtworks Consulting: www.brauchtworks.com. The original scale is available at
www.williamwhitepapers.com/recovery_toolkit.
Robert Granfield and William Cloud introduced and elaborated on the concept of “recovery capital” in a series of articles and a 1999 book, Coming Clean: Overcoming Addiction without Treatment. They define recovery capital as the volume of internal and external assets that can be brought to bear to initiate and sustain recovery from alcohol and other drug problems. Recovery capital, or recovery capacity, differs from individual to individual and differs within the same individual at multiple points in time. Recovery capital also interacts with problem severity to shape the intensity and duration of supports needed to achieve recovery. This interaction dictates the intensity or level of care one needs in terms of professional treatment and the intensity and duration of post-treatment recovery support services. The figure below indicates how these combinations of problem severity and recovery capital could differ.
High

Page 15 of 28
Modified and distributed with the permission of William L. White to George Braucht, Brauchtworks Consulting: www.brauchtworks.com.
People with high problem severity but very high recovery capital may require fewer resources to initiate and sustain recovery than an individual with moderate problem severity but very low recovery capital. Where the former may respond very well to outpatient counseling, linkage to recovery mutual aid groups and a moderate level of ongoing supervision, the latter may require a higher intensity of treatment, greater enmeshment in a culture of recovery (e.g., placement in a recovery home, greater intensity of mutual aid involvement, involvement in recovery-based social activities), and a more rigorous level of ongoing monitoring and supervision.
Traditional addiction assessment instruments do a reasonably good job of evaluating problem severity and some of the newer instruments improve the assessment of problem complexity (e.g., co-occurring medical/psychiatric problems), but few instruments measure recovery capital. The scale on the following page is intended as a self-assessment instrument to help a client measure his or her degree of recovery capital. The scale can be completed and discussed in an interview format, or it can be completed by the client and then discussed with the professional helper.

UNDERSTANDING OF ALCOHOLISM SCALE 3AC016-130127
William R. Miller & Theresa Moyers Center on Alcoholism, Substance Abuse and Addiction; casaa.unm.edu
My Anonymity Code: ____ ____ ____ ____ Today’s Date: ___________________ My Scores: Disease Model = ______________ Psychosocial Model = ______________ Heterogeneity Model = ______________ Moral/Spiritual Model = ______________ Interpreting Your Results
1. Highest score suggests your model preference = easiest to work with like-minded people 2. Disease vs Heterogeneity: Strong negative correlation
a. Goal-choice: abstinence vs. moderation b. Goal-selection: impose vs. negotiate c. Motivational-assistance: traditional confrontation vs motivational enhancement
3. Heterogeneity score: implies your willingness to use a variety of recovery resources 4. Moral/Spiritual score: suggests your preference/tolerance for faith-based resources
Professional Development Goal: Equally high scores on all four scales!
Based on Moyers, T. B. & Miller, W. R. (1993). Therapists’ conceptualization of alcoholism:
Measurement and implications for treatment. Psychology of Addictive Behaviors, 7, 238-245. Disease Model
Reflect adherence to the disease model of alcoholism and characterological flaws in alcoholics (e.g., “Drinking alcoholics are liars and cannot be trusted.”) Associated with imposing, instead of negotiating, treatment goals (helper determined vs. client choice) and an unwillingness to consider a moderation goal (as opposed to abstinence).
Psychosocial (Learning) Model
Believe alcoholism is influenced by cultural experience, familial experience, or both. Tend to be more willing to allow client choice and actively support pursuing client-determined goals. Also have been shown to be active in retention efforts like making phone calls and/or sending letters, even after treatment has been interrupted.
Heterogeneity Model
Reject the homogeneity (similarity) of alcoholics and believe that they show diverse symptoms, have diverse reasons for drinking, and require different strategies for recovery. Have a significant, negative correlation with Disease Model beliefs.
Moral/Spiritual Model
Believe alcoholics have weak morals and negative characterological factors (e.g., self-centeredness) and that recovery requires reliance on a spiritual faith. Strong correlation with the Disease Model beliefs, especially in people who are in recovery.

Recovery Check-In Overview 160712
Goal: Provide assertive continuing care interactions before, during and after treatment - research shows that these contacts improve the likelihood of sustained, meaningful engagement in treatment and long-term recovery. Contacts may be made while peers/clients are on waiting lists, between appointments or groups, and as follow-ups to no-shows. The check-in also serves as a reminder of the next scheduled treatment or other social service appointment thereby reducing no-shows while also promoting timely resource utilization and recovery community integration.
Suggested Frequency: The below are suggested as minimum interaction frequencies. However, the frequency is best determined by each peer/client and her/his needs.
First 8 weeks: 1X a week; Second 8 weeks: 1X every 2 weeks; Months 5+: 1X a month Eight Step Recovery Check-Ins
Issues brought up by the peer take precedence over any pre-determined contact outline. 1. Acknowledge peer then introduce yourself and clarify your role 2. Complete the Outcome Rating Scale (ORS) 3. Complete and discuss Craving or Set-back/Symptom Ratings = primary
reason(s) for seeking service 4. Discuss Recovery Capital and Plan or WHAM 5. Complete the Session/Relationship Rating Scale (S/RRS) and discuss what will make
the next interaction more useful 6. Schedule the next Recovery Check-In and remind or assess commitment to attend
the next treatment/other appointment 7. Summarize major topics and next week’s activities/goals as stated by the participant 8. If not completed during the check-in, transfer ORS, Craving, and S/RRS ratings to the
Self-Completed Overview of Recovery Experience (SCORE) Board.

Recovery Action and Progress Group Handout 150719
Instructions: Begin group with everyone completing a (1) Outcome Rating Scale and 2) updating her or his SCORE Board. 3) Review the Group Guidelines. 4) One participant does a Recovery Check-In with another participant using the Relationship Enhancement OARS until everyone has checked in. 5) End group by completing then discussing today’s Group Session Rating Scale scores. Be sure to add the GSRS score to your SCORE Board.
A. Group Guidelines
1. Turn off cell phones, computers, etc., and notify someone if you must leave the room. 2. Vegas Rules: Say “Vegas Rules” before you say something that you do not want repeated
outside of this group. 3. No fixing! Instead, share what recovery activities have worked for you by using “I…”
statements. 4. What other guidelines will help make this a safe and respectful place for you?
B. Recovery Check-In. Use the Relationship Enhancement OARS (below) to ask… 1. What’s right with you today? 2. What is your ORS score? What progress did you make since your last group on your
recovery goals? May show your Self-Completed Overview of Recovery Experience Board (SCOREboard).
3. From 0-10, what is your highest craving level since the last group, with 0 = Never thought
of using alcohol or other drugs; 10 = Used 4. Do you have a safe and sober place to stay? 5. Would you like more group time today?
Relationship Enhancement OARS
Open-Ended Questions: Express concern, interest, puzzlement, etc.; Who, What, How Affirmation/Validation: Affirm appreciation for the other person and identify his or her
strengths; “You stayed sober last weekend!” instead of, “How did you manage to avoid drinking?” “You are concerned about…”
Begin with “You…” not “I” Describe behaviors Attend to solutions instead of problems Attribute interesting qualities to the person Focus on a strength or attribute, not the lack of something or what was not done
Reflective Listening: Make statements about what you heard the other person say instead of asking questions
Begin with: “You think (feel)…,” “You’re wondering if…,” “So you feel (think)…,” Summaries: Short, clear statements that organize what’s been said; Use “and” instead of “but”
