Recovery University

Recovery University refers to the expansive trainings offered through Mecklenburg’s PROMISE. They include six trainings on mental health Recovery and a series of Crisis Education trainings. The Recovery trainings range from basic recovery philosophy, providing information on the “what” of recovery, to very specific, advanced topics on recovery, assisting participants in understanding the “how” of implementing recovery best practices. The Crisis Trainings include topics such as Predict, Prevent and Plan, Role of the First Responder, Developing a Creative Crisis Plan, Crisis vs. Emergency, and more! Participation in all Recovery University trainings satisfies the North Carolina state requirements for 2-5 additional hours of training related to the target population of adults with SPMI and SMI. Each course has an established number of credit hours earned and a Certificate of Attendance will be given to each attendee. A Certificate of Achievement will also be provided to participants who score 70% or higher on the post-test. Only those participants can receive the credit hours required through the State of North Carolina.
Due to a grant provided by Mecklenburg LME, Recovery trainings are free to all agencies with IPRS funding, one representative from each non-IPRS funded agency, and all individuals striving toward mental wellness, family members and community members in Mecklenburg County. Trainings are offered at minimal cost to all other non-IPRS agency employees- for individual and group rates, contact Mecklenburg’s PROMISE for details. Crisis Education trainings are free to all MH/DD/SA agencies, family members, community members and service recipients in Mecklenburg County. Individual and group rates are available for those out of county. Contact Mecklenburg’s PROMISE Staff Assistant at (704) 525-4398 ext. 207 for more details.
