Abstract
Recovery homes may facilitate individuals with substance use disorders re-integration back into community settings by providing friendship, resources, and advice. Participants of the current study were over 600 residents of 42 Oxford House recovery homes. Findings indicated that willingness to share resources in the form of loans was associated with higher levels of house involvement in recovery home chapters. Active involvement in house and community affairs may influence more recovery within homes or may be an indicator of houses with residents with more capacities and skills for positive long-term health outcomes. Such findings suggest that recovery is a dynamic process with multiple ecological layers embedding individuals, their immediate social networks, and the wider community.
