Recovery Friendly Workplace (RFW) helps businesses build supportive, stigma-free welcoming workplaces for people in recovery from substance use disorder.
Becoming a Recovery Friendly Workplace is a smart workforce strategy. By reducing barriers to employment and recognizing the skills and potential of people in recovery, you can expand your talent pool, improve employee retention, reduce absenteeism, and build a healthier workplace culture.
The best part? There is no cost to participate.
RFW Maine provides employers with training, resources, and guidance to help create a recovery-friendly culture that works for their organization.
When qualified workers are hard to find, overlooking people because of their recovery journey means overlooking valuable talent.
