Vermont Foundation of Recovery Receives National Certification Having met rigorous state and national standards, six recovery residences have received certification from The Vermont Alliance of Recovery Residences (VTARR). VTARR is the state affiliate of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences (NARR). The newly certified recovery residences are the first in Vermont to achieve this recognition. They are operated by the Vermont Foundation of Recovery (VFOR). “As the State’s Affiliate of NARR, VTARR manages annual certification of recovery residences utilizing national standards,” said Peter Mallary, President of VTARR’s Board of Directors. Mallary said that VFOR was the right recovery organization to lead the way. “VFOR has been a leader in high quality recovery housing and is committed to addressing a significant shortage of recovery beds. We are pleased that they have achieved this national certification.” Recovery housing provides peer to peer support and a supportive environment that is free from alcohol and illicit drug use. Residents live together as family – providing support by sharing meals, completing household chores, and planning activities to do together. Recovery housing is not treatment. Nor is it an adult medical facility, group home or halfway house designed to serve returning clients. Employment and volunteering are emphasized as critical responsibilities. As of February 2019 Vermont had more than 8,000 people being treated for opioid addiction. The State is also experiencing high rates of alcohol abuse. Safe housing is a crucial part of success for people in early recovery from substance use disorders. “Once people complete treatment, they need a stable alcohol and illicit-drug free living environment,” notes David Riegel the Executive Director of VFOR. “We are thrilled to have our homes certified.” Andrew Gonyea, Director of Operations for VFOR wants all recovery home operators to see the value of certification. “This is an opportunity to share best practices and provide the highest level of quality service to individuals recovering from substance use disorder.” Research published in the American Journal of Public Health has found that residents in recovery housing had significantly lower rates of relapse. VFOR’s facilities have agreed to participate in VTARR’s independent complaint process for certified recovery residences and the communities that they serve. Certification is a voluntary process and is open to all recovery homes in Vermont. NARR and VTARR will be hosting a webinar at noon on Tuesday, October 29 for recovery home operators, recovery partners and interested parties. For more information and to register, visit the organization’s website at www.vtarr.org. The Vermont Association for Mental Health and Addiction Recovery (VAMHAR) is the fiscal agent for VTARR, which is funded primarily through the Vermont Department of Health’s Alcohol and Drug Abuse Programs via a Federal Opioid Response grant. The organization is overseen by its own Board of Directors. VTARR’s mission is to support those in recovery from Substance Use Disorders by improving access to recovery residences through established standards, a fair and transparent certification process, community engagement, education, technical assistance, research, and advocacy.

The ten-month endeavor will result in a comprehensive action plan to advance the creative economy in the state. The project is supported by major funding from Jane’s Trust, as well as grants from the Vermont Agency of Commerce and Community Development and the National Life Group Foundation. The effort is directed by the Vermont Creative Network, an initiative supported by the Vermont Arts Council. “Vermont’s creative economy does more than create great jobs – it creates a great place to live, work, and play,” said Ted Brady, deputy secretary of the Vermont Agency of Commerce and Community Development. “Nearly every aspect of Vermont’s economy is made stronger thanks to the creative people making art, music, and other art forms. Creative entrepreneurs, whether making a living, practicing a hobby, or anything in between, have helped create Vermont’s sense of place, which is our primary tool in retaining Vermonters and recruiting new Vermonters.” The action plan will identify concrete ways to boost the economic viability of the creative sector and will outline steps to build synergy between creative industries and other sectors. It will also offer strategies to align future workforce development with the needs of the state’s creative businesses and to position Vermont as an attractive place for artists, young people, and entrepreneurs. “Recently, there has been a growing recognition of the economic potential of creative talents and businesses nationwide,” said Amy Cunningham, Vermont Arts Council deputy director and coordinator of the Vermont Creative Network. “There is a particularly compelling case to be made for the power of the creative economy in Vermont, where creative industries and occupations provide nearly nine percent of all employment.” The Vermont Arts Council and the Vermont Creative Network are working with Mt. Auburn Associates, Melissa Levy of the Vermont-based Community Roots, and economic development expert Stuart Rosenfeld to conduct the in-depth research and to develop the action plan. Mt. Auburn Associates and Stuart Rosenfeld have worked collaboratively for more than a decade on creative economy plans for states and cities across the nation. Stuart Rosenfeld and Melissa Levy worked together on the creative economy plan recently completed for the Northeast Kingdom. The statewide project builds on several years of research, partnership-building, and community inquiry – including national research and two studies of the creative economy of east central Vermont (Windsor and Orange counties; completed in 2016) and the Northeast Kingdom (released in January 2019). The Northeast Kingdom study demonstrated both the substantial economic power of the creative sector and the compelling needs for targeted investment, workforce training, coordinated marketing, and connecting creative enterprises to other economic sectors in the region. About the Vermont Creative Network The Vermont Creative Network was established by the Vermont Legislature in May 2016 as an initiative of the Vermont Arts Council. The Network is a broad collective of organizations, businesses, and individuals working to advance Vermont’s creative sector. Vermont Creative Network. About the Vermont Arts Council The Vermont Arts Council envisions a Vermont where all people have access to the arts and creativity in their lives, education, and communities. Engagement with the arts transforms individuals, connects us more deeply to each other, energizes the economy, and sustains the vibrant cultural landscape that makes Vermont a great place to live. Since 1965, the Council has been the state’s primary provider of funding, advocacy, and information for the arts in Vermont. www. vermontartscouncil.org. • 1/2 PRICE • 1/2 PRICE • 1/2 PRICE • 1/2 PRICE • HOUSEPLANT SALE! •All Hanging Baskets 6,” 8” & 10” ...............
