PEER RECOVERY

Peer Recovery Specialists are persons whom have experienced addiction and are experiencing recovery.

Peer Recovery Specialists are trained and certified in peer recovery but do not provide clinical support services.

Every participant at Partners Behavioral Healthcare is provided with a Certified Peer Recovery Specialist (CPRS) who will assist in removing barriers to recovery and help identify local resources that target the participants needs such as education, food, shelter, transportation and employment.

Peer Recovery Specialists provide an additional layer of emotional support and orient a participant toward solutions for today’s challenges, pointing the client forward in practical and sustainable behaviors.
