The International Center for Addiction and Recovery Education (ICARE) and R1 Learning have teamed up to help eradicate substance misuse and addiction issues in the workplace and at home. ICARE’s enhanced training and professional development programs incorporate change management principles from R1 Learning into the recovery process to help employees and others struggling with addiction to realize their full potential free from addiction.
Since 2014, the International Association for Professional Recovery Coaches (IAPRC), a division of ICARE, has been addressing addiction recovery at the individual level by training and certifying recovery coaches all over the world. Earlier this year, fueled by the staggering rise of addiction brought on from the pandemic, ICARE sought to bring its programs to the workforce. These advanced corporate programs are designed to help individuals build the skills needed for change in recovery and provide a roadmap for successful and sustainable recovery outcomes.
“R1 Learning has mastered the psychology of change and has created an incredibly powerful family of processes and tools to educate coaches and those in recovery to build the skills needed to be successful,” said Dr. Jean LaCour, Founder of ICARE. “We are honored to be aligned with such a high integrity organization who shares our passion for helping people in recovery live their best lives.”
ICARE’s advanced program incorporates R1 Learning’s “5 Stages of Change” to educate and support managers and supervisors to spot and guide employees to Employee Assistance Programs (EAP) and other resources for help. The program also engages, educates, and empowers employees to learn more about substance use and mental health and self-direct themselves to coaching resources, to EAPs, or other treatment options. The new curriculum training module is also designed for recovery coaches to use when working with individual clients.
“I love Dr. LaCour’s passion, experience, depth of knowledge and her impact on the recovery industry,” said R1 Learning Founder, Tom Karl. “We are incredibly excited about our partnership with ICARE and look forward to serving this mission together.”
