This training was created by and for people utilizing Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) to empower patients as peers and as leaders. We'll work with patients and MAT program staff to create a unique recovery community and culture of support within the MAT agencies. Participants will learn to cultivate patient-lead mutual-aid self help including recovery support, leadership development, and education about medication-assisted treatment and recovery. We provide all the materials and information needed to start and maintain your own patient-lead program, including ideas for engaging patient support groups, a tour of the original MARS™ project, and follow-up consultation to support your efforts.
