What is Recovery?

Recovery is a process of change through which individuals improve their health and wellness, live a self-directed life, and strive to reach their full potential.




What is the Illinois Statewide Network of ROSC Councils (ROSC-ISN)?

The central focus of the ROSC-ISN is to create an infrastructure, or “system of care”, with the resources to effectively address the full range of substance use problems within communities. For more information about the history of the ROSC model, visit the Peer Recovery Center of Excellence.
  

The ROSC-ISN Program

ROSC-ISN established networked, geographically distributed ROSC Councils that assist communities with building local recovery-oriented systems of care and that can network with the statewide ROSC.

 


Features and Goals of the Illinois ROSC Councils  

Features a coordinated network of community-based services and supports that is person-centered, building on the strengths and resiliencies of individuals, families, and communities.

What is the Illinois Statewide Network of Recovery Oriented Systems of Care Councils (ROSC-ISN)?

The central focus of the ROC-ISN is to create an infrastructure, or "system of care", with the resources to effectively addess the full range of substance use problems within communities. For more information about the history of the ROSC model, visit the Peer Recovery Center of Excellence.

 In addition to adopting the ROSC model statewide, the Illinois Department of Human Services' Substance Use Prevention and Recovery (SUPR) has implemented local ROSC Councils in numerous communities through its Recovery Oriented Systems of Care - Illinois Statewide Network (ROSC-ISN) program.  

 

The ROSC-ISN Program

ROSC-ISN established networked, geographically distributed ROSC Councils that assist communities with building local recovery-oriented systems of care and that can network with the statewide ROSC. 
  
ROSC Councils build collaborations in their communities that connect everyone who can support recovery. This may include local hospitals, primary care, mental health, law enforcement, local business owners, local government representatives and policy makers, persons with lived experience and SUD intervention, treatment, prevention, and recovery support service providers.
