Angles ofRecovery Care
Research & evidence

Evidence-informed — and yours to shape.

AORC's base library draws on established CBT and mindfulness techniques, labeled so clinicians know what's behind each one — and because content is configurable, your program can extend or replace it with its own materials.

The thinking behind the platform

Built on decades of behavioral-health practice.

AORC isn't just a content library — it's shaped by nearly 30 years of behavioral-health research and frontline care, and by how recovery actually works between appointments: spotting who needs support, coordinating care across a treatment team, keeping clients and staff in communication, and making help available around the clock.

  • Identifying who needs support, and when
  • Coordination of care across the treatment team
  • Communication between clients and staff
  • 24/7 availability in the days between sessions
  • The right resources, matched to real need
  • Oversight and rapid staff access when it matters
The MISSION Model logo
An evidence-informed foundation

Built in collaboration with The MISSION Model.

The MISSION Model — an evidence-based approach for co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders, developed in 2001 — is the first evidence-based coping-skill toolkit in the AORC library, built in collaboration with its clinical team. It's our reference case for a platform designed to be model-agnostic: programs can bring their own toolkits into the same daily experience.

  • Base library grounded in The MISSION Model's evidence-based approach
  • Grounded in established CBT & mindfulness practice
  • Each labeled by evidence strength for clinical transparency
  • References available to clinicians in the provider portal

A note on claims: AORC suggests evidence-informed coping skills — not medical or therapeutic advice — and we make no medical-outcome claims. What we surface is a starting point a clinician and member can build on.
