SMART Recovery-Informed Addiction Interventions at Promise Land Outreach Ministries
At Promise Land Outreach Ministries Transitional Homes for Young Adults, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive support for individuals seeking to overcome addiction and reintegrate into the community. Our approach is rooted in SMART Recovery principles, which emphasize self-empowerment, mutual support, and evidence-based practices.
SMART Recovery Principles
SMART Recovery (Self-Management and Recovery Training) is a science-based program that helps individuals manage addictive behaviors through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT). The core principles of SMART Recovery include:
- Self-Management: Encouraging individuals to take responsibility for their own recovery and make positive changes.
- Mutual Support: Providing a supportive community where individuals can share experiences and learn from one another.
- Choice: Allowing individuals to choose their own goals, skills, and tools for recovery.
- Evidence-Based: Utilizing scientifically proven methods to guide the recovery process.
Integrating SMART Recovery into Our Programs
At Promise Land Outreach Ministries, we integrate SMART Recovery principles into our addiction interventions to help young adults achieve lasting recovery and successful reentry into the community. Our programs focus on:
- Building Motivation: Helping individuals find the internal motivation to change their addictive behaviors and embrace a healthier lifestyle.
- Coping with Urges: Teaching practical strategies to manage cravings and avoid relapse.
- Managing Thoughts, Feelings, and Behaviors: Providing tools to address negative thoughts and emotions that can trigger addictive behaviors.
- Living a Balanced Life: Encouraging a balanced approach to life that includes healthy habits, relationships, and activities.
