Recovery High Schools: A Safe Haven for Teens Battling Addiction

And but at the same time there is hope because we're all trying to do this.
Imagine a high school where the focus isn't just on grades, but also on helping teens recover from addiction. That's exactly what recovery high schools aim to do. In this episode of The Real Common Treatable Podcast, host Clint Mally sits down with Ana Lankford, a Program Director and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, to explore these unique educational institutions. Ana brings a wealth of experience in family systems, addiction recovery, and adolescent therapy to the conversation.
She discusses how recovery high schools create a supportive environment that combines academic success with recovery efforts. These schools offer an alternative peer group, so students are surrounded by others who understand their journey. Recovery coaches and parent recovery coaches are also on hand to provide additional layers of support. Ana delves into the practical aspects too, like how to organize and fund these schools, and the importance of individualized academic support to keep students on track.
If you're curious about how these schools operate and the impact they can have on teens' lives, this episode is a must-listen. Whether you're a parent, educator, or someone interested in addiction recovery, you'll find valuable insights and real-life strategies here.
