Peer-to-Peer Services
Peer Recovery Support professionals are people who have been successful in the recovery process who help others experiencing similar situations. Through shared understanding, respect, and mutual empowerment, Peer Recovery Support workers help people become and stay engaged in the recovery process and reduce the likelihood of relapse.
Peer support services can effectively extend the reach of treatment beyond the clinical setting into the everyday environment of those seeking a successful, sustained recovery process. (SAMHSA, 2017)
P.E.A.R.L. can help connect you with a Peer to help craft recovery plans and to local and digital recovery support services to help achieve your long-term recovery goals.
