Achieving Wellness Through Shared Experiences

One of the greatest resources for people in recovery is the support offered by their peers. DBH/MRS provides peer support programs and activities in which people with mental health and/or drug/alcohol issues are assisted by peers, who use their first-hand experience to provide invaluable inspiration, motivation, encouragement and support.

A partial list of peer support programs includes:

• Friends Connection- a peer-run mobile psychiatric counseling service sponsored by the Mental Health Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania.
• Co-Location of Physical Health and Behavioral Health Services- convenient programs that allow people to seek services for their behavioral health and medical needs at one location.
• Mutual Support Groups- for individuals who share a common challenge or similar interest.
