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 mental health and substance abuse disorders
The mission of PEER Wellness Center is to put a positive face on recovery and reduce the impact of mental health and substance use disorders in our community.
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 volunteers who have lived experience with mental health and substance use 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.
