Other Information to Note
- Remix Recovery Facilitators are ONLY certified to facilitate Remix Recovery support groups

This gives you the opportunity to experience the Remix Recovery model firsthand, determine whether facilitating feels like the right fit for you, and begin building meaningful connections within our community.
- Remix Recovery groups are not therapy, they are peer-led support groups
- Peer Facilitators are encouraged to participate in the group process just as any other member!
