Promoting Recovery-Based Workplaces

What is a Recovery-Based Workplace?

Recovery-friendly workplaces and employers are businesses committed to making a foundational change in how they hire, treat, and support staff living in or seeking recovery from substance use and mental health disorders.

In addition to the workplace, the MATTC is launching a project to encourage a more inclusive environment in all areas to educate and advocate for substance-free and healthy mental health language and activities to encourage healthy living. 

Details of this project will be announced soon! If you have any questions, please contract Jill Eriksen at [email protected].

Behavioral Health and Substance Use Awareness in the Workplace

This 1.5 hour course is designed to educate employers and employees about mental health and substance use issues that may arise in the workplace and how to manage them. It is not designed for the mental health professional, and this series does not train the viewer to diagnose, only to recognize and respond. Behavioral health and substance use are common occurrences. Everyone in the workplace can make an impact by learning more about these conditions, working to reduce stigma, and learning how to talk to a coworker who might be struggling and help them to access supportive resources. This presentation was prepared for the Mid-America Addiction Technology Center (Mid-America ATTC), Mid-America Mental Health Technology Transfer Center (Mid-America MHTTC), and the Mid-America Prevention Technology Transfer Center (Mid-America PTTC) under a cooperative agreement from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).
