Our Certified Peer Specialists are individuals with lived mental health experience who have been trained and certified in the state of Pennsylvania on how to assist others in wellness and recovery . They work with each individual person’s strengths and challenges to help them develop a plan to recovery designed to manage illness and hope for the future. Additionally, they will assist individuals in increasing community supports outside of the hospital.
“Recovery is a deeply personal, unique process of changing one’s attitudes, values, belief, feelings, goals, skills and/or roles. It is a way of living a satisfying hopeful and contributing life even with limitations caused by the illness.”
- William Anthony (a person living with mental illness and Director of the Boston Center for Psychiatric Rehabilitation)
