Choice and self-determination are foundational principles of recovery-oriented practice. But if a person is making a choice that steers their life away from recovery, how should staff respond?

These values are more difficult to hold when people engage in choices that are self-defeating. Providers can become overly protective, directive, or even neglectful depending on the situation. This training introduces a pragmatic, recovery-oriented framework for working with people who are making choices that may be self-defeating.
