About Recovery-Friendly Taos County

Recovery-Friendly Taos County (RFTC) was formed in 2012 in accordance with a larger national and statewide effort to create Recovery Oriented Systems of Care (ROSC). It was a challenge that required ongoing collaboration and cooperation between consumers and families, community leaders, advocates, and a range of professionals from healthcare, social service, and criminal justice organizations. 

The goal is to foster a recovery-positive environment that welcomes those new to recovery into the community, capable of providing meaningful assistance as they seek to transition from a life dominated by substance abuse or mental health issues to a stable, lasting, self-motivated recovery.

Vision

Recovery-Friendly Taos County envisions a community that promotes freedom from Substance Abuse by mobilizing individuals and community resources to overcome stigma, provide access to services, and support individual, family, and community recovery. “Una Vida Buena y Sana – A Good and Healthful Life”
