What are Peers?

Modified on Thu, 2 Oct at 9:02 AM

Our Certified Peer Specialists (Peers) are real people with lived experiences involving mental health and/or substance use challenges. 


In addition to offering support as you navigate life's challenges, peers can assist with defining goals, identifying strengths and using the app to manage your wellness plan. 


Peers provide a supportive network where you can build meaningful connections, gain new perspectives and feel less isolated.


Peers are:

  • Trained, certified and experienced
  • Caring, empathetic, passionate about supporting others
  • Available to support your during business hours


Peers are not:

  • Going to judge you or tell you what to do
  • A therapist, clinician or medical professional
  • Able to diagnose or provide medical advice
