> What if, instead of reaching backward to ³recover²

> in the traditional sense,

> to a prior state of health, individuals with

> psychiatric diagnoses reached

> forward to procover, to focus on life instead of

> illness, to build new

> dreams and find new purpose? What if those who

> support and treat these

> individuals were able to easily create and support

> this change? This

> discussion will center on the 8 principles and 12

> strategies of Procovery,

> and how they provide a toolbox that can be used by

> any individual ­ or

> family member, or professional ­ to move forward in

> the face of what can
