Recovery Coaches In Our Zieggy Tribe
Posted 09/17/18
Two members of our Zieggy Tribe successfully completed the West Virginia Recovery Coach Academy. Sarah Moore and Matt Porter became certified West Virginia Recovery Coaches this month after a week-long intensive training program.
The pair joined a class of over a dozen people who studied instructional materials developed by Connecticut Community For Addiction Recovery, a nationwide program used to train recovery coaches.
“The opposite of addiction is not sobriety. It’s connection!” said Sarah, who works in the Human Resources Department at the company’s Wheeling location. “People don’t care about how much you know until they know about how much you care.”
Each coach walked away from the training with tools to help them listen better, be a mentor, and motivate those recovering from addiction.
