  “This training is one of the best I have ever attended,” said Erik Lamoreau, substance use disorder peer recovery center manager. “I am so pleased we can bring this to Aroostook County and I encourage any person in recovery, an ally of recovery and/or a professional who works with individuals experiencing substance use disorder to participate. You won’t forget it.”

  Known as CCAR Recovery Coach Academy, the four-day training will be held in collaboration with Portland Recovery Community Center. Lunch will be provided. The cost for all four days is $20.
