Peer Recovery
Peer Support for Lasting Recovery
Each person’s struggles with substance use and addiction are unique—and so is their path to recovery. Whatever that path may be, rehabilitation is more likely with the right support.
No one has to do this alone. CARE of Southeastern Michigan connects individuals struggling with substance use and addiction to a whole community of people in recovery. We make connections. We make progress. And we never give up.
Peer Recovery Services
Through Recovery United, we provide professional and emotional support to those seeking to change their lives.
We believe there are multiple paths to recovery—and are absolutely committed to helping individuals find their path and stay on it. CARE works with people who seek us out on their own, as well as those referred by employers, through hospital emergency departments, by the corrections system, and through local treatment agencies.
Each person served by CARE is matched with a peer recovery coach. These coaches are themselves in long-term recovery and have extensive training in addiction, relapse, mental health, outreach, and the many resources available to those in need. Coaches provide encouragement and support, bridging the gaps to assure that the person in recovery has the essentials they need.

Supporting Recovery with Meaningful Work
Whatever your path to recovery, research shows that recovery is more likely with the right support and stable employment.
CARE’s placement services are built on an evidence-based model called “Individual Placement and Support”. These services include job search, resume building, interview preparation, job coaching, educational resources, and personalized benefit coaching. We can help find and maintain employment quickly.
CARE’s current employment support program is for unemployed Macomb County residents, ages 18 to 30, with a past history of opioid use. Unsure if you qualify for employment support through CARE? Contact us and we will help connect you to the services you need.
