Peer Recovery Coach
USARA, Utah
Lanette Denton is a Certified Peer Support Specialist with Utah Support Advocates for Recovery Awareness (USARA). USARA is a State funded peer-led organization providing peer and family support and advocacy for people and families in recovery. She is a woman in long-term recovery since 2014. Her journey has brought her to a place where she can share her lived experience as a Peer Recovery Coach for USARA in the Southeastern Utah area.
Recovery is the most important thing in her life, it enables her to maintain her family and the things that are important to her. Lanette’s gratitude seems like a never-ending stream and when she wakes up each day to the blessing of having her children with her, a safe home for them, and heading out to a job she loves that allows room for not only helping others; but a space where she can learn as an individual, a woman, and a mother.
She says, “I feel like I have everything that I have ever wanted. I will be celebrating another year in long-term recovery in July of this year. I want to shout out to the world that recovery is possible and to never give up!”
