CCAR Recovery Coach Practice Exam

Recovery capital refers to the resources a person can draw on—social, human, physical, and cultural capital—that support recovery. Social capital includes supportive relationships, networks, and community connections that provide encouragement and practical help. Human capital covers skills, education, coping abilities, resilience, and self-efficacy that empower someone to navigate challenges. Physical capital involves tangible assets like safe housing, reliable transportation, health care access, and other material supports that enable healthy living. Cultural capital encompasses beliefs, values, norms, and a sense of belonging within communities that encourage recovery and access to services. This broad view shows that recovery isn’t just about money or one type of support; it’s about the combination of assets a person can rely on across life domains to maintain and sustain recovery. It’s not limited to clinical risk or relapse concepts; it’s about the network of resources a person can draw upon to live a healthier life.
