I have lived through addiction and mental health. I have achieved so much during my sobriety. I can help with housing and resources in communities.
inspire hope that people can and do recover; walk with people on their recovery journeys; dispel myths about what it means to have a mental health condition or substance use disorder; provide self-help education and link people to tools and resources; and support people in identifying their goals, hopes, and dreams, and creating a roadmap for getting there. Break down barriers of experience and understanding, as well as power dynamics that may get in the way of working with other members of the treatment team. Help finding and following their own recovery paths, without judgment, expectation, rules, or requirements.
