VIRTUAL CCAR Recovery Coach Academy for Young People

30 CEUs – 30 Contact Hours over 4 days in person and 10 hours online content

This course is approved as a replacement for CCAR's Recovery Coach Academy for initial CARC certification in Massachusetts, as well as for renewal credit hours. 

This course is appropriate for those who are new to recovery coaching as well as those who want to enhance their existing skills and learn to support young people most effectively.

CART has developed the CCAR Recovery Coach Academy© for Young Adults to enhance the skills of those individuals who will be supporting young adults on their recovery journey. We believe this ground-breaking training program is one of the best available for anyone interested in recovery coaching young people. This course will provide you with the knowledge and skills necessary to guide and mentor others through their own recovery process and is open to everyone – people in recovery, family members, friends and allies. Much like the journey of recovery, this training offers a transformational experience. This innovative new training will be delivered as four days live with 10 hours of self-study.
