Welcome to
PEER Wellness Center
a community center
for people in recovery
About Us
PEER Wellness Center is a Recovery Community Center that has been supporting recovery in Boise and the surrounding communities since 2015. The peer-based (non-clinical) programs and services offered support others who live with substance use and/or mental health disorders, the friends and family who love us and to the community at large. In gratitude for our own recovery and fueled by a passion for helping others find their own recovery, we strive to make our community center a place where
isolation becomes inclusion,
problems find solutions, and
strangers become friends.

Our Vision
The vision of PEER Wellness Center is to create a culture of wellness and positivity that supports long-term recovery for those who face challenges from substance use and/or mental health disorders.
Our Mission
The mission of PEER Wellness Center is to put a positive face on recovery and reduce the impact of substance use and/or co-occurring mental health disorders in our communities.
We accomplish this by:
-
cultivating an environment of acceptance and inclusion
-
by linking peers to existing community resources
-
by utilizing the success, skills, and support of staff and volunteers who have lived experience with substance use and/or mental health disorders to deliver peer-led and peer-delivered services, and
-
by being an advocate in our community that educates and reduces the stigma surrounding mental health and substance use issues.
Our Values
These core values create the conceptual framework and philosophy that enable us to fulfill our purpose:
-
you are in recovery if you say you are
-
support all pathways to recovery
-
recovery meets you where you are at
-
focus on the recovery potential, not the pathology
-
everyone has a strength to share
-
recovery is a gift; expect to pay it forward
-
the path of recovery is life-long
-
ongoing community support is vital to successful outcomes
-
we support the wellness of the full person
