Hi Everyone,
On Friday, June 15th, Recovery University (RU)
held its graduation ceremony at the Trinity Church on the Green. RU is a
60 hour training that takes place over 6 or 7 weeks. Students must pass
an examination to earn State Certification as a Recovery Specialist.
Liberty had three graduates in the most recent New Haven class.
It is exciting to see that the people who chose to enroll in
the training came from three different programs – TLP, Safe & Secure and
SHP. They were encouraged by their case managers to apply and as they awaited acceptance. Liberty offered
space at the Church Street offices for RU to hold the New Haven area
session. The students got support from their families, staff, and friends to finish the program.
It takes tremendous effort for adults to return to
school
and to start the process of returning to the workforce. LCS is a
supportive community to people as they recover their lives. This is
just one example of how the community comes together to achieve positive
outcomes.
