What do Recovery Support Specialists(RSS)Do?
A RSS works in collaboration with the people we serve as well as clinical staff for the best interests of the person’s recovery process. There are many positive roles that a RSS can fulfill in the organization based on his/her individual skills, experience, education, and desires. Recovery Support Specialists offer the advantage of lived experience from mental illness and/or substance abuse. They know the journey to recovery is real and attainable, because he or she has found recovery for themselves.
