Recovery housing can be a critical asset in supporting an individual on their journey of recovery. The Best Practices for Recovery Housing Guide updates the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s (SAMHSA’s) 2018 document and outlines 11 best practices for the implementation and operation of recovery housing. National organizations have contributed significant and valuable work in developing policies, practices, and guidance to improve recovery housing as an integral part of an individual’s recovery.
