What does CPS believe about the recovery process?

The belief that recovery is uniquely defined for each individual is a fundamental aspect of the CPS approach. This perspective recognizes that everyone experiences and navigates their journey to recovery differently, influenced by their personal circumstances, backgrounds, and needs. Acknowledging that recovery is not a one-size-fits-all process emphasizes the importance of individualized support and empowerment, allowing individuals to define what recovery means to them and how they can achieve it.

This understanding also plays a crucial role in peer support, where specialists draw from their own experiences to assist others in a way that respects their unique paths. By affirming that each person's recovery journey is distinct, the CPS model fosters a sense of ownership and agency among individuals, promoting resilience and a more meaningful connection to their recovery process.
