Recover Wyoming

What Recover Wyoming does

Recover Wyoming is a non-profit Recovery Community Organization (RCO) founded in 2010 in Cheyenne, Wyoming, and is the first and only RCO in the state. It delivers peer-based recovery support services to individuals in recovery from substance use disorder and to their families, operating a physical Recovery Community Center at 1017 E Lincolnway, Cheyenne, and extending services statewide through its Telephone Recovery Support (TRS) program, online Bridges to Recovery meetings, the PATH (Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness) program for individuals with serious mental health conditions experiencing homelessness, and a statewide Peer Specialist training and certification program for which Recover Wyoming serves as the Wyoming member board of the International Certification & Reciprocity Consortium (IC&RC) since February 2021.

The organization's core technology is human-delivered peer support: trained staff and volunteers who are themselves in long-term recovery provide one-on-one recovery coaching, weekly telephone check-ins, and facilitated all-pathways meetings, delivered through both in-person and Zoom channels. Its principal technical differentiator is the IC&RC certification authority, which positions Recover Wyoming as the credentialing body for the entire Wyoming peer-specialist workforce. The organization's underlying platform consists of these programmatic channels plus a referral-based distribution network into Laramie County DUI, Drug, and Veterans Treatment Courts, Wyoming State Penitentiary, mental-health treatment providers, and Volunteers of America recovery homes.

Recover Wyoming's business model is that of a non-profit, with services provided free of charge to end users. Revenue is sourced from grants (with the Wyoming Department of Health/Behavioral Health Division as the named primary funder for TRS), individual donations (including memorial and tribute gifts), community fundraising events such as Cajun Fest, and corporate sponsorships. Its customer segments comprise people in recovery from substance use disorder (primary), family members and allies (primary), aspiring and certified peer specialists, and homeless individuals with co-occurring serious mental illness. The organization operates with a small staff of approximately five paid employees, supplemented by trained volunteers and an eight-member board of directors.
