Recovery Hub

AICDAC – Recovery HUB – Region 6 & 7

The regional recovery hubs throughout Pennsylvania will be designed to embed, expand, and promote a Recovery-Oriented-System of Care, which is a coordinated network of community-based services and supports that is person-centered, with the ultimate goal of improving the health, wellness, and quality of life for individuals in recovery from substance use disorder. (from Press Release)

Armstrong Indiana Clarion Drug & Alcohol Commission, Inc.

Region 6 — Beaver, Butler, Armstrong, Indiana, Cambria, Washington, Westmoreland, Greene, Fayette, and Somerset counties

Region 7 — Crawford, Mercer, Lawrence, Venango, Warren, Forest, Clarion, McKean, Elk, Cameron, Jefferson, and Clearfield counties

Each grantee will use a hub and spoke model to provide recovery supports in their designated region. Each regional “hub” will support community-driven services that will serve as “spokes.” The hub will provide technical assistance and collaborate with a variety of community entities, sectors, and systems to enhance a recovery-supportive community and facilitate recovery support service delivery.

What is AICDAC’s role?

AICDAC will conduct a recovery needs assessment for all 22 counties in Regions 6 & 7, develop a strategic plan for each region, and provide training & technical assistance to organizations that provide Recovery Support Services (RSS).

AICDAC Recovery HUB 2024 Year in Review is a document highlighting efforts to address the prioritized needs of Region 6 and Region 7. Throughout 2024, the Recovery HUB provided 442 training hours to 440 individuals and provided nearly 100 instances of Technical Assistance. Access the document below to see a break down of this data. Also take a look at how we started, where we have been and where we are going.
