Holistic Health Recovery Program (HHRP)
Welcome
The Holistic Health Recovery Program (HHRP) is a
12-session, manual-guided, group level program to promote
health and improve quality of life.
The primary goals of HHRP are health promotion and
improved quality of life. More specific goals are abstinence
from illicit drug use or from sexual risk behaviors; reduced
drug use; reduced risk for HIV transmission; and improved
medical, psychological, and social functioning. Holistic
Health Recovery Program is based on the
Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills model of HIV
prevention behavioral change. According to this model,
there are three steps to changing behavior: Providing HIV
prevention information, motivation to engage in HIV
prevention and opportunities to practice behavior skills for
HIV prevention.
