Unlocking Recovery: The Power of the WISC Integrated Step Course

The WISC Integrated Step Course offers a structured and standardized approach to teaching the 12 steps that can help people recover from addiction and lead fulfilling lives.
Ever wondered if there's a more structured way to tackle addiction recovery? John Wood and John Elford think so, and they're here to share their groundbreaking approach with the WISC Integrated Step Course. This episode of 'Get Into Recovery' dives into the creation and methodology behind this innovative program, which combines educational theory and Bloom's Taxonomy to teach the 12 steps of addiction recovery in a way that's both accessible and impactful.
The course includes detailed manuals, engaging PowerPoints, and handy prompters for facilitators, plus online resources for clients to prepare for each session. John Wood, inspired by the loss of a friend to alcohol addiction, saw an opportunity to apply his knowledge of educational theory to create a more effective recovery process. By starting with basic understanding and progressing to more complex applications, the course helps participants internalize and apply the 12 steps in their daily lives.
This structured approach isn't just about memorizing steps; it's about fostering self-awareness, improving communication skills, and setting actionable goals. One of the standout features of the WISC Integrated Step Course is its standardization. Whether you're in a prison in England or a community center elsewhere, the experience remains consistent thanks to the comprehensive materials provided. It's not just cost-effective but also ensures that everyone gets the same quality of support.
The hosts are optimistic about the course's future, believing it can help even more people break free from addiction. So if you're looking for a new way to approach recovery, or you're curious about how educational theory can transform addiction treatment, this episode is a must-listen.
