FSARR and Behave Health Work Together to Make Certification in Delaware Simpler

Delaware Recovery Residences Transform Certification with Behave AMP

Delaware uses Behave Health's technology to certify homes faster


Delaware’s First State Alliance of Recovery Residences (FSARR) is now using Behave Health’s Affiliate Management Platform (Behave AMP) to optimize the certification process for recovery residences statewide. This marks a significant step for Delaware’s recovery housing community, equipping operators with modern, purpose-built software designed to streamline compliance and certification. Facilities accredited by FSARR gain enhanced tools for training, documentation, and transparent reporting, all tightly aligned with legislation and evidence-based best practices.


Delaware’s Certification Requirements for Recovery Residences

Delaware’s approach to certifying recovery residences is rooted in House Bill 114, known as the Matthew D. Klosowki Act. This legislation makes certification essential for homes seeking access to state referrals, funding, and public recognition. Certification is managed through FSARR, Delaware’s NARR affiliate, and is built around adherence to nationally recognized standards. Operators must demonstrate compliance with NARR guidelines for safety, resident rights, staffing, training, and ethical conduct, including specific requirements such as:

  • Submission of documented policies and procedures that match NARR standards

  • Mandatory incident reporting within 72 hours

  • Structured environments, including levels of oversight and credentialed staff, depending on residence type (monitored, supervised, or service provider levels)

  • Evidence of life skills programming, transparency, and a commitment to resident welfare


Why This Matters for Delaware’s Recovery Residences

For Delaware’s Recovery Residences, Behave AMP’s deployment means faster, smarter certification. It supports regulatory compliance, improves operational efficiency, and strengthens transparency. As more homes embrace FSARR’s certification, residents have greater confidence in the quality and safety of their recovery environment.
