Peer-based Recovery Support Services
The following articles explore several dimensions of the emerging realm of peer-based recovery support services for people recovering from addictive disorders. William L. White and a variety of co-authors tell the story of this emerging specialty, the dedicated men and women whose efforts are defining it, and the projects that illustrate the variety of emerging recovery support services.
