Abstract
Although the research base around 12-step effectiveness has been grown markedly in recent years, there has also been growth in the broader evidence base around recovery models, and this article reviews three key components: the transition to a social model of recovery; the emergence of a metric of recovery progress, recovery capital focused on building strengths; and multiple pathways to recovery, involving mutual aid groups, recovery community organizations, and access to jobs, friends, and housing. We conclude with an overview of the practical implications for addiction treatment and sustaining the gains made in specialist treatment services.
