Description

By revising the original 12 steps, recovering people may extend their recovery to maximize personal growth and happiness. The original steps set the stage and enable us to define who we are as sober individuals. The Sequel provides a recipe for learning who we may become and striving to meet personal goals.

Educational Goal

The educational goal of this workshop is to provide everyone, individual recovering person and treatment providers, with a road map to improve recovery beyond abstinence to a life beyond our wildest dreams; one step at a time.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Identify the mental health components which necessitate working the 12 steps.

  • Develop an individual plan to grow in recovery after completing the 12 steps.

  • Define recovery capital and explain why it is important.

  • Evaluate stages of recovery and identify the steps to maximize potential.
