Recovery Support Services Survey

Thank you for your willingness to participate in our short survey. Mental Health Colorado has teamed up with the Colorado Health Institute, the Office of Behavioral Health, and the Colorado Consortium for Prescription Drug Abuse Prevention to develop a strategic plan for recovery support services throughout the state. We are asking for your input to help us understand the types of recovery support services that are most critical to recovery and those that are missing in Colorado communities.

For the purposes of this survey, we are defining recovery support services as those provided before, during, and after formal treatment (such as medical detox and inpatient treatment) that are needed to reach and sustain recovery.

We appreciate your time and feedback.
