SMART Recovery Meeting Framework

Meeting Delivery Guidelines

The SMART Recovery Meeting Framework outlines the key principles that guide how SMART Recovery meetings are delivered. It helps ensure meetings remain consistent, safe, and aligned with the SMART Recovery approach while allowing appropriate flexibility for facilitators and organisations.

Using a simple Red, Amber and Green system, the framework highlights which elements of the program must remain consistent, which require consultation before changes, and which allow facilitators flexibility to respond to local community needs.

This framework supports facilitators and organisations to maintain the integrity of the SMART Recovery program while ensuring meetings remain accessible, relevant and effective for participants.
