Stacy Charpentier: Shaping the Future of Recovery Coaching

Recovery coaches aren't just there to help somebody on that pathway. If you know, they've lost connections with their family.
Ever wondered how Recovery Coaches are trained to support people on their journey to sobriety? In this episode of the 'Recovery Matters! Podcast', hosts Don Smith and Tom Russo sit down with Stacy Charpentier, CCAR's Director of Training, to dive into the heart of Recovery Coach training. From the inception of the Recovery Coach Academy (RCA) to its global reach, Stacy shares her insights on what makes CCAR's training program a beacon in the recovery community.
She discusses the shift to virtual training during the COVID-19 pandemic and how it opened doors for participants worldwide, including their first trainee from Dubai. Stacy also highlights the importance of welcoming Recovery Allies and how her personal experiences have shaped her approach to recovery coaching. The conversation touches on using technology to spread the message of recovery and the innovative ways CCAR meets people where they are, even in virtual spaces.
Don reflects on his transformative experience attending the RCA and the profound changes he has witnessed in others who have gone through the program. Stacy emphasizes the critical role of certification and vetting in maintaining the integrity of Recovery Coaches. She proudly discusses CCAR's evolving curriculum, which includes supplemental programs like emergency department recovery coaching, professionalism, and spirituality.
