Correctional Facility Coaching Sign-Up Form

What is the Correctional Facility Recovery Coaching Program?
The Correctional Facility Recovery Coaching Program is a peer-based recovery support program that helps individuals with their recovery. The program is free and available to adult individuals in Minnesota correctional facilities. Through this program, you can work with a  trained peer recovery coach. Recovery coaches have personal experience of recovery from mental health and substance use disorder.
Through this program with a recovery coach, you can:
  • receive personalized recovery coaching, peer support, and community resource navigation from a trained MRC recovery coach
  • strengthen your recovery by exploring what works for you
  • prepare for your release plan and establish your short- and long-term goals
  • develop your support network
Recovery coaches do NOT:
  • make decisions for you
  • diagnose
  • provide counseling or refer to your support activities as "counseling" or "therapy"
  • promote a particular religion/church
  • provide financial or legal support
