Welcome to Consumer and Family Online Services!

For as long as there has been mental illness there has been recovery. For years it was not widely understood. Even so, this is an exciting time for everyone who cares about his or her mental well-being and that of a loved one. People in recovery now have new tools to shape and advance their personal recovery.
The state of Maryland has become a national leader in moving toward a recovery-oriented system of care. Together, we are improving the chance for people to live full and productive lives in their own communities.

Recovery Defined

Recovery refers to the process in which persons are able to live, work, learn and participate fully in their communities. For some individuals, recovery is the ability to live a fulfilling and productive life despite a disability. For others, recovery implies the reduction or complete remission of symptoms. Science has shown that having hope plays an integral role in an individual’s recovery.
