Recovery capital-the quantity and quality of internal and external resources to initiate and maintain recovery-is explored with suggestions for how recovery support services (RSS) (nontraditional, and often nonprofessional support) can be utilized within a context of comprehensive addiction services. This article includes a brief history of RSS, conceptual and operational definitions of RSS, a framework for evaluating RSS, along with a review of recent empirical evidence that suggests that rather than enabling continued addiction, recovery supports are effective at engaging people into care, especially those who have little recovery capital, and/or who otherwise would likely have little to no "access to recovery."
