During this webinar, participants will learn about nontraditional responses to counter opioid overdoses.
The webinar will focus on the use of peer support specialists, who are individuals with lived experience who are also in recovery. Peer support specialists serve as important resources for individuals in recovery by helping survivors of overdose safely return to their communities and facilitating access to treatment and other services. The webinar will describe:
- The role and value of peer support specialists;
- Key steps for developing a community peer support network; and
- Existing peer support programs and their outcomes to date.
