SMART Recovery-Based Goal and Action-Setting Specific

The document discusses the SMART method for setting goals and actions that are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. It provides guidelines for making goals and actions person-centered, positively framed, and focused on well-being, meaningful life pursuits, and developing a positive identity. Goals and actions should describe positive behaviors to replace unwanted behaviors and how the person will manage their safety, rather than focusing on problems or avoidance. An example goal of improving well-being and coping strategies is provided along with specific action steps.
