Recovery community centers: Characteristics of new attendees and longitudinal investigation of the predictors and effects of participation

Recovery community centers (RCCs) have expanded across the U.S., serving as social “recovery hubs” that increase recovery capital (e.g., employment, housing) by providing resources that clinical care does not provide. While research supports RCCs' general utility, little is known about new participants' characteristics, predictors of engagement, services used, and benefits der ived. Greater knowledge would inform the field about RCCs' clinical and public health potential.
