Our Story
The National Board of Adaptive Recovery Professionals (NBARP) emerged in 2017 as a pivotal response to the limitations of traditional wellness approaches. Founded by three innovative leaders who had previously established themselves as the driving force behind ARCS, a nationally renowned wellness company, NBARP was created to revolutionize the field of life coaching certification. Their vision was to empower graduates of the ARCS program to transcend conventional boundaries and become certified life coaches capable of catalyzing transformative change in individuals recovering from trauma and adversity.
The decision to establish NBARP stemmed from a deep-rooted belief in the transformative power of adaptive recovery coaching. Dissatisfied with the existing certification options available, the founders recognized the need for a nationally recognized and privately accredited certification board. This led to the creation of NBARP, which aimed to set new standards of excellence and innovation in the field. The board's founders brought with them a wealth of experience and expertise, along with a commitment to empowering individuals to reclaim their personal power.
From its inception, NBARP has experienced rapid growth and garnered widespread recognition for its pioneering approach to certification. The board's certification program has become synonymous with excellence, known for its comprehensive curriculum and rigorous standards. Graduates of the program have emerged as leaders in the field, equipped with the skills and knowledge needed to facilitate profound and lasting change in their clients.
NBARP's commitment to excellence extends beyond its certification program. The board is dedicated to providing ongoing support and resources to its members, ensuring that they have the tools they need to succeed in their practice. NBARP also offers a range of professional development opportunities, enabling members to stay at the forefront of the field.
As the demand for certified adaptive recovery professionals continues to grow, NBARP continues setting the standard for excellence and innovation. The board's commitment to empowering individuals to reclaim their personal power and transform their lives is unwavering, and its impact on the field of adaptive recovery coaching is profound. NBARP continues to evolve, embracing new technologies and methodologies to ensure that its members remain at the cutting edge of the field.
INBARP stands as a beacon of excellence and innovation in the field of adaptive recovery coaching. Its founders' vision and commitment have set a new standard for certification.

Most people have a hard time taking care of themselves because they are emotionally paralyzed by the false belief that they are somehow responsible for the feelings, needs and behaviors of others.
Our Board
The National Board of Adaptive Recovery Professionals (NBARP) values transparency and accountability in all its operations. However, it is important to note that the identities of NBARP board members are kept confidential and anonymous for several reasons. The decision to maintain anonymity is a deliberate choice made by NBARP board members to uphold the values of integrity, objectivity, and professionalism in their work. While their identities remain confidential, their commitment to advancing the field of adaptive recovery coaching remains unwavering.
Mission Focus
The demand for the time and expertise of NBARP board members became overwhelming in their previous roles at ARCS, a national wellness company. Seeking a more focused and impactful way to contribute to the field of adaptive recovery coaching, they retired from ARCS and moved to the NBARP board.
This transition allows them to devote their full attention to advancing the certification standards and supporting professionals in the field. In large part, NBARP board member prioritize internal networking endeavors with other leaders and benefactors within the coaching, counseling and wellness industries, to fundraise private grant funding for our program applicants.
The NBARP wants to make our programs accessible for anyone seeking personal empowerment and professional acumen.

Objectivity
As the accrediting entity for all Certified Adaptive Recovery Coach (CARC) related coaching certifications, NBARP board members are required to maintain objectivity in relation to ARCS members, ARCS graduates, ARCS coaches, and even ARCS officers and administrators. This objectivity ensures fairness and integrity in the certification process and helps to uphold the credibility of the board.
Personal 12-Step Membership
One significant reason for this confidentiality is the board members' membership in various 12-step fellowships, which require that they maintain anonymity in their professional lives. This commitment to anonymity is deeply ingrained in the principles of these fellowships and is respected by NBARP.
Personal Safety
The anonymity of NBARP board members also serves to protect their privacy and safety. In their roles as leaders in the field, they may encounter situations where maintaining anonymity is essential for their well-being and the well-being of those they serve.
