Peer Support Specialist Professional

Peer support specialists are professionals who provide emotional and social support to those who need it. They are usually employed by hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and other community-based organizations.

"The peer specialist is a licensed professional who helps people with mental health needs to build on their strengths, identify resources, and make informed decisions about their treatment options."

Peer support specialists work in a variety of settings including community mental health clinics, residential treatment centers for adolescents or adults, acute psychiatric units in residential facilities for people with developmental disabilities.
