    What is Peer Support?

    Peer support specialists are individuals who have lived experience with mental health or substance use challenges. They use their personal experiences to provide hope, encouragement, and practical guidance to others on their recovery journey.

    The Impact

    Research shows that peer support can significantly improve outcomes for individuals in recovery. By connecting with someone who truly understands their struggles, residents feel less alone and more motivated to continue their recovery journey.
