What is Recovery?
Recovery is a process of change through which individuals improve their health and wellness, live a self-directed life, and strive to reach their full potential.

What is the Illinois Statewide Network of ROSC Councils (ROSC-ISN)? The
central focus of the ROSC-ISN is to create an infrastructure - or
“system of care” - with the resources to effectively address the full
range of substance use issues within communities. For more information about the history of the ROSC model, visit the Center for Addiction Recovery Support.

The ROSC-ISN Program ROSC-ISN established networked, geographically distributed ROSC Councils that assist communities with building local recovery-oriented systems of care and that can network with the statewide ROSC.
|
Features and Goals of the Illinois ROSC Councils A ROSC Council is a local collaboration of organizations that seek to improve the support that their community provides to individuals who are on a pathway to recovery.
