RecoveryWorks, like the legendary Lockheed Skunk Works,
designs and builds tools. RecoveryWorks is a social
technology design/build enterprise. We use a Complex Adaptive
Systems approach to reducing substance use disorders and promoting
recovery in the Washington, DC area.
We take our inspiration from George Washington Carver. When he saw
that the one-crop cotton economy was ruining the ecology of the
American South, he didn't try to forbid cotton planting. He didn't
try to get subsidies for peanut planting. He just found ways --
tools -- to use the complex adaptive technical system of the
market to save the complex adaptive natural system of the
environment.
