Solution Overview
The state is making the eRecovery solution available to behavioral health entities across the state. Included in this solution is the Connections app, an evidence-based recovery support app. Available in both English and Spanish, this application equips users with coping mechanisms, recovery support tools, virtual group meetings, and discussion forums, while providing a space to share and celebrate achievements. Additionally, providers can promote the use of the Digital CBT module. Lastly, a dedicated team of Peer Support Specialists provides 24/7 moderation of the online community and a support button to ensure patients and clients have crisis support when needed. Subsequently, the Peer Team communicates escalation specifics to providers, ensuring a seamless communication loop and ongoing support for those who experienced a risk moment.
