Not an instruction manual. There was no us and them. I liked the combination of audio, reading, and pictures. It was positive and supportive and made the job seem doable. I enjoyed the lessons immensely.” – Participant co-creation reviewer from Copeland Center for Wellness and Recovery 

 The core knowledge, skills and values in each course align with evidence-based practices that support full and meaningful community inclusion, participation and belonging.
