Ready Now Recovery Facilitators are volunteers. However, through the Assembly of God there are opportunities for missionary appointments.  If interested please contact us for more information.

The training is designed to be completed within 45 days from the time that you create your account in our online Learning Management System.

You will need to establish a core team of other trained Ready Now Recovery facilitators in your community to begin promoting and hosting  “in-person” groups. To host virtual groups, you will need to contact us so that you can be added to the virtual platform in order to create groups.

We’d love to chat! Fill out our contact form and someone from our team will get in touch with you as quickly as possible.
