Peer Recovery Support Specialists have a unique role in assisting individuals through the recovery process, through shared lived-experience and mutual empowerment. Peers help people become, and stay engaged, in the recovery process and reduce the likelihood of reoccurrence.

The CoE-PHI is facilitating a virtual training workshop, specifically designed for Peer Recovery Support Specialists. This learning opportunity will assist peers in building their communication skills to prepare for having important conversations with clients around concepts of the privacy of their substance use treatment information and consent to share information, in a way that is meaningful, relatable and helpful to clients.   

During this training, we’ll discuss, and model, key communication skills including introducing concepts of privacy, asking for permission, providing education, reflective listening, and checking in with your client. Additionally, we’ll provide resources to support the implementation of this process for both your role, and within your organization.
