This past week Erin Burke, Brandi Hackett, and Jennifer Young took a trip to Edgecomb County to participate in a reentry simulation. A reentry simulation is an educational event that simulates the challenges faced by people re-entering society after incarceration. The focus of reentry is a major focus in our efforts to assist individuals who are returning to society after incarceration. As part of the twelve strategies for the opioid settlement we look to identify the difficulties for reentry and hope to fill in the gaps that make it less difficult for anyone trying to rebuild their life and decrease recidivism.

This past week at Recovery University!

This past week in R.E.C.O.V.E.R.Y 101 we have been discussing the stages of change. Stages of change is a trans theoretical model created by Prochaska and DiClemente. They found that change takes place over time in five distinct stages.

-Precontemplation: not seeing the problem
-Contemplation: seeing a problem and considering wheher to act
-Preparation: doing something to change
-Action: doing something to change
-Maintenance: working to maintain the change

What stage of change are you in?
Our classes take place Monday-Thursday at the Alexander County PORT/Community Paramedic Office, from 5-6. We hope to see you there!
