People can and do recover from severe emotional distress known as “mental illness”.

This curriculum has been developed by Laurie Ahern and Dan Fisher MD, Ph.D. It includes a 36-page guide and a 90-minute video lecture on the PACE (Personal Assistance in Community Existence) curriculum, featuring information on the empowerment model of recovery, PACE/Recovery principles, and recovery research. This information is useful for administrators, consumers, families, advocates, and providers who want to transform their system to one based on a recovery culture.
