Job details:
PROGRAM SUMMARY:
In 2016, USARA will launch an innovative statewide peer support program called Telephone Recovery Support (TRS), and we are in need of a dynamic and well-experienced Program Manager to run this program.
TRS offers weekly telephone calls to people in recovery to “check in” and see how they’re doing. Recoverees are given support and encouragement as well as information about community resources, all recovery, 12-step meetings or other supports that may help them maintain their recovery. TRS helps reduce relapse and enhances the recovery experience for recoverees as well as the volunteer making the calls. Calls are made by trained USARA volunteers that are, in many instances, in recovery themselves. TRS calls take place at USARA’s Recovery Community Center in Salt Lake County. However, anyone seeking recovery support throughout Utah can sign up to receive a support call.
JOB SUMMARY:
The TRS Program Manager will oversee the implementation of TRS at our Recovery Community Center in Salt Lake City, set up community partnerships and collaborations throughout the state, supervise and support TRS volunteers, host volunteer trainings, track data, and report to USARA staff on outcomes and measurable.
