Peer Support Essentials: Jim and Ashley's Guide to Recovery Resources

We're not here to so much talk about. We need to constantly be learning... It's about learning specific things that you can bring to your practice so you continue to grow in your professional development.
Picture this: you're a peer supporter in a rural community, trying to help others on their recovery journey, but resources seem scarce. Jim and Ashley from Montana's Peer Network get it. In this episode of 'Recovery Talks', they dive into the nitty-gritty of why knowing your resources is crucial for effective peer support. From sharing their top go-to resources to navigating regional challenges, they cover it all with a mix of personal anecdotes and practical advice.
They stress the importance of regional thinking and how technology can be a game-changer in accessing vital support tools. One standout resource they highlight is the SAMHSA website, which offers a treasure trove of training programs, support groups, and public messages. Jim and Ashley also emphasize the need for continuous learning and professional development, urging peer supporters to keep growing and advocating for better support systems.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone involved in peer support, offering valuable insights and actionable tips to enhance your ability to help others.
