Our Mission is:
Building healthy and resilient communities
Resilience is Real Recovery
When we focus on resiliency, we care for the individual holistically, when the individual becomes resilient, it has a profound impact on the community.
Lived Experience
Treatment for substance use disorder is critical, which is why we partner with providers for that level of care and we can focus on providing peer services
Measurable Outcomes
By partnering with Commonly Well Impact uses the Recovery Capital Index. This tool helps us focus on resiliency and recovery naturaly follows.
Staying the Course
Resiliency is not achieved in a day. Recovery from substance use disorder and crisis takes time. We walk along side of our clients until they are sure we have helped them find overall wellbeing.
Methodology
This approach allows us to meet individuals where they are and recognize the progress they make across multiple dimensions, not just their sobriety status. It also provides a comprehensive picture of the person’s recovery journey, helping both clients and providers see the full scope of wellbeing beyond the confines of traditional measures.
CoLab
The RCI’s detailed and inclusive framework allows us to collaborate effectively with other organizations, treatment providers, and community partners. By focusing on the multiple components that contribute to wellness, the RCI helps us engage a broad range of stakeholders, including mental health professionals, peer support specialists, housing providers, and employment services.
All of Us
Together, we build a cohesive network that addresses the root causes of substance use disorder and mental health challenges in the region. This collaborative ecosystem ensures that each client receives the wraparound support they need, which, in turn, strengthens the resilience and cohesion of our communities
Thrive
By demonstrating the interconnectedness of health, community support, and personal growth, we work to dismantle stereotypes and build a culture that values and supports the holistic recovery process. Through these efforts, Impact Wisconsin not only improves individual lives but also helps to create stronger, more inclusive communities where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
Impact
This data-driven approach not only enhances individual outcomes but also informs broader community strategies. By using RCI data, we can adjust our programs and services to better align with the evolving needs of those we serve, ensuring that resources are directed where they are most impactful.
Finding Eudemonia
Utilizing the RCI
Impact Wisconsin leverages the Recovery Capital Index (RCI) as a transformative tool to break down barriers and stigma associated with substance use disorder in rural central Wisconsin and beyond. By adopting the RCI, we shift the focus from the outdated binary of “sober/not sober” to a holistic understanding of wellness that encompasses physical, emotional, social, and spiritual wellbeing.
Wellness
In the broader context, the RCI is instrumental in reshaping the narrative around addiction and recovery in rural central Wisconsin and beyond. As we gather and share insights from the RCI, we challenge the stigma that still lingers in many rural communities by promoting a new understanding of recovery as a path to overall wellness.
