Community reinforcement

Community reinforcement is a therapeutic approach that helps individuals change their behavior by creating a positive environment and support network. It focuses on reinforcing healthy choices through incentives and social support, making overcoming habits like substance abuse more appealing and sustainable. By strengthening daily routines, improving relationships, and providing accessible resources, community reinforcement encourages individuals to stay motivated and connected, increasing the likelihood of lasting change. This method recognizes the importance of social context in behavior modification and uses community resources to support long-term recovery and well-being.
