Helping Men Recover is the first gender-responsive, trauma-informed treatment program for men. The materials are grounded in research, theory, and clinical practice and include a facilitator's guide and a participant's workbook. This is the men's version of the widely used, evidence-based women's curriculum, Helping Women Recover. The Helping Men Recover Facilitator's Guide for the 18 session program is a step-by-step manual containing the theory, structure, and content needed for running groups. The participant's workbook allows men to process and record the therapeutic experience. The program model is organized into four modules: self, relationships, sexuality, and spirituality. These are the four areas that recovering men have identified as triggers for relapse and as necessary for growth and healing. The materials are designed to be user-friendly and self-instructive. This allows the Helping Men Recover program to be implemented by a staff with a wide range of training and experience. This versionis designed specifically for men in criminal justice settings.
