How We Help

One-on-One Peer Support

 Peer support involves an individual trained to use their lived experience (mental health challenges, substance use, incarceration, houselessness, etc.), skills, and knowledge to offer another help, encouragement, and understanding to navigate life's challenges. Peer Support Specialists provide non-clinical, strength-based support rooted in mutuality, respect, honesty, authenticity, and open-mindedness.  Peer Support Specialists can help in areas of employment, coping skills, recovery options, wellness tools, money management, application assistance, and resource sharing.

Support Groups

 Our peer support groups are gatherings where individuals with shared experiences, conditions, and/or challenges come together to create community, provide mutual support, encouragement, and shared insights. These groups are typically led by peer specialists who have gone through similar situations and offer a non-clinical and non-judgmental approach to help, wellness, and recovery.

Train with us to be the change our communities need.

Peer Intern Supervision

In Texas part of the certification process for any peer specialists is the completion of 250 hours of volunteer or paid work experience supervised by a credentialed Peer Specialist Supervisor.  Supervision consists of providing feedback and guidance of your peer support work that may raise questions or concerns as you work in the field, as well as an opportunity to

reflect to see how your own biases and gaps in knowledge can impact the quality and direction of your work. The experience should have you question your tact in handling crisis situations, worldviews, and many other day -to-day situations that may occur.

WRAP: Wellness Recovery Action Plan

 A highly adaptable, strengths-based approach to developing personalized wellness strategies. WRAP is grounded in self-determination and helps individuals plan for both everyday wellness and moments of distress.   

The WRAP process supports you to identify the tools that keep you well and create action plans to put them into practice in your everyday life. All along the way, WRAP helps you incorporate key recovery concepts and wellness tools into your plans and your life. Working with a WRAP can help individuals to monitor uncomfortable and distressing feelings and behaviors and through planned responses, reduce, modify, or eliminate those behaviors and feelings. WRAP can be facilitated for individuals, families, youth, seniors, veterans, those dealing with addictions, and those that are justice impacted.

Creative Experiential Wellness Events

Our creative wellness and empowerment experiences were created to, not only create community, but to help reduce isolation, stress and anxiety, improve mood, increase cognitive flexibility, foster community, improve emotional awareness, expand self-efficacy and enhance coping mechanisms.  Activities such as painting, rug tufting, apparel and shoe design, lip gloss making, creating perfumed oils, and sewing, to name a few, help to increase self-esteem and learn new skills.
