General Information
The Recovery Friendly Workplace (RFW) Initiative is designed to help individuals with substance use disorder (SUD) achieve long-term success in the workplace by creating a balance between their work and recovery commitments.
The RFW unit works with city, state, and federal resources
along with community-based organizations to identify recovery friendly
employment opportunities, while providing one-on-one support to help
individuals overcome barriers to employment. RFW provides training and
education to increase job skills and employability, while assisting with transportation,
health services, and confidential counseling.
This comprehensive support builds a strong foundation for recovery and a
successful career path.
