“…This is consistent with social network theory, social capital and the effectiveness of family (Burns & Marks, 2013;Green et al 2013). Relationship difficulties with parents were cited as significant in the trajectory of substance use among this cohort, which is in keeping with existing, primarily quantitative, research among young people (Yabiku et al 2010;Stone et al 2012;Green et al 2013;Turner et al 2014).…”

“…Finally, social capital is the most robust resource for recovery. Burns and Marks (2013) suggested that social capital, in the context of recovery, refers to social relationships, family, access to sober outlets, and peers/social relationships that support individual recovery efforts. Using the recovery capital theoretical framework may help counselors understand how individuals are able to use personal and social resources in their efforts to overcome substance use (Cloud & Granfield, 2008).…”

We examined the lived substance use recovery experiences of eight African American women. Specifically, in this study, we examined how participants were able to achieve sustained recovery without the aid of substance use treatment. Using transcendental phenomenological analysis, we found that participants used four components of recovery capital: family, spirituality, religion, and the Black Church. This study has important relevance to working with African American women in substance use recovery.

“…The practical and theoretical usefulness of RC has also been recognized in Sweden (Skogens, von Greiff, and Esch Ekström 2017;Skogens and von Greiff 2016;Topor, Skogens, and von Greiff 2018), suggesting that an assessment tool based on RC might be applicable in a Swedish treatment context, as it has been in other countries (Best et al 2016;Burns and Marks 2013;Groshkova, Best, and White 2013). The ability that has been found to identify crucial elements of an individual's recovery process, and by extension outlines an individual's barriers and strengths, also corresponds to the core of evidence-based practice, and mainly the increasing demands for documentation and assessment (The National Board of Health and Welfare 2019, 23) The paradoxical difficulty of applying standardized tools in the area of social work entails a challenge, where careful deliberations concerning applicability and demand are necessary.…”

This article presents the outcome of the first phase in the development of a recovery capital-based assessment tool in a Swedish alcohol and drug treatment context. In the process of studying the potential usefulness of such a tool, other aspects besides psychometric properties and validity have been examined. The experience and knowledge of professionals in the Swedish alcohol and drug treatment context represent the empirical data. Five group interviews have been conducted with staff from different alcohol and drug treatment facilities in Sweden. The respondents were asked to discuss an outlined idea of a recovery capital-based assessment tool. The transcribed interviews were thematically analysed and divided into three themes: the impact and need for assessment and evaluation, the need for flexibility and simplicity, and the role of the professional. The findings indicate that there is a demand for a strength-based tool in the Swedish alcohol and drug treatment context. There was a divergence between the professionalism of the social work practitioners and the use of assessment tools. To meet this divergence, the professionals emphasized aspects such as simplicity and flexibility. The findings indicate that the conditions are favourable for the implementation of a recovery capital tool in a Swedish alcohol and drug treatment context, but certain questions remain unanswered. This requires further cooperation with professionals, and in particular provides them with the possibility to reflect on its usefulness and applicability, while applying it to their daily work and procedures.
