Pro-recovery describes a position adjacent to, and occasionally within MAP, zoo and paraphilia communities that is purportedly tolerant of sexually non-normative individuals on the condition that they work with others in an attempt to "correct" or "get over" their "disorders". This may be interpreted to mean a clinical referral, or associating online with unqualified, pro-recovery people, some of whom are antis. It is a controversial concept, not only because of comparisons with conversion therapy, but because pro-recovery spaces are widely considered to pose an actual threat to the security of MAPs, even within anti-contact communities.

Pro-recovery antis might come from a variety of political backgrounds, but unlike outright antis, tend towards the left-liberal end of the spectrum - associating on websites such as Tumblr and Twitter - showing support for trans, A-spec, Pro-fiction (occasionally), etc. In a 2018 piece on Vice, it was observed that:

“Reblog this If you hate MAPs but you’re pro recovery for ‘MAP’ minors,” reads one post from an anti-MAP account, “and hope they get the help they need and separate themselves from these pedophiles who have convinced them they have no choice.”[1]
