The Colorado Health Foundation partnered with Westat to commission a report, Perspectives on Adult Recovery in Rural and Frontier Colorado: A Look at Lived Experiences, Practices, and Systems, which shines a light on the recovery experiences of Coloradans living on low income in rural and frontier areas. Personal stories from people with lived recovery experience and in-depth interviews with mental health and substance use providers helped us better understand the recovery experience – from personal, professional and systems perspectives. The report examines these perspectives through a systems lens and lifts up opportunities to guide future systems change.
