Substance Use Disorders (SUD) continue to be a leading cause of death, a leading correlate in violent crime, and a leading cause of lost productivity in the workplace.&nbsp; Recovery happens in communities and community-based resources have been shown to positively affect SUD impact and SUD recovery. By educating communities and creating continuity among support services, community-based services, and new innovations, such as recovery community organizations and other recovery support services, have provided recovery efforts and improved sustained recovery for individuals that live within the community.<ref>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/16066359.2019.1571191?journalCode=iart20</ref>


The Recovery Cafe Model allows those in recovery to have a safe place that "meets people where they are on the recovery continuum, engages them for a lifetime of managing their disease, focuses holistically on a person’s needs, and empowers them to build a life that realizes their full potential."&nbsp;<ref>https://recoverycafenetwork.org/</ref>&nbsp;&nbsp;The organization is committed to successfully replicating the model in additional communities.

<br/> Recovery is not just a matter of individual treatment or individual approaches combined with peer group support. The whole community plays a role in supporting successful recovery.

No single program or innovation makes a community the ideal place to support recovery, but communities can add things and then integrate them with treatment and recovery services to create a community that provides more support and better options for people in recovery. &nbsp;

'''Community Task Force'''


This concept originated in Australia in the late 1990s, and there are now more than 1,000 Men's Sheds in Australia with thriving movements in a growing number of other countries. Available buildings (such as vacant warehouses, foreclosed houses that have been possessed by the city or county, or vacant space in a retail center) can be donated, rented or purchased to create a space for men to gather (and it would not need to be limited to men, but that has been the roots). The space is then filled with tools, workbenches, and materials that can be used for the men to tinker, build, fix, and putter--all while building new social relationship.

Integrating participation in with a community gardening program can bring many benefits to people in recovery. It provides positive social interaction, skill building, improve access to healthy foods and more. Ideally, involvement with community gardening could be integrated with peer-to-peer recovery groups, recovery coaches, tools like [http://rtribe.org rTribe] or [http://triggrhealth.com Triggr], or a comprehensive success plan managed in a community care coordination platform like XCare Community.&nbsp; See more&nbsp;[[Information_on_how_gardening_helps_with_recovery|information on how gardening helps with recovery]] <div class="_">
