RECOVERY RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP

A 10-month learning community to build research skills towards greater peer workforce integration into the opioid recovery support system. Fellows represent diverse recovery roles: peers, peer supervisors, clinicians, trainers, advocates, other agency staff, graduate students, and staff researchers.
Fellows meet once a month at University of Maryland, Baltimore between September 2022 - June 2023 to achieve these outcomes:
-
Develop a network with which to collaborate, including through participatory research
-
Use research to uplift benefits of peer services towards greater workforce integration
-
Gain deeper understanding of research processes and practices
-
Use agency data to enhance program management, evaluation, and fundraising
-
Apply research to improve not just peer services, but all recovery supports
-
Develop and share findings from research towards community education and advocacy
