Who are Peer Support Specialists?

Peer Support Specialists are people living in recovery with a history of a mental illness or substance use disorder. They provide support to individuals who can benefit from their life experience. The shared experience of being in recovery from a mental health and/or substance use condition or being a family member is the foundation on which the peer recovery support relationship is built. All of our specialists have received training and are credentialed by the North Carolina Certified Peer Support Specialists Program.

Through shared understanding, respect, and mutual empowerment, peer support specialists 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.

  • Advocate for people in recovery

  • Share community resources
