I developed this course to certify individuals to help peers in mental health recovery. This is a 40-hour training, after which individuals are eligible for a certification from the Oregon Health Authority Traditional Health Worker program as a Peer Support Specialist.

​​

Some topics we cover:

• Vicarious trauma

• Facilitating social justice

• Trauma Informed Approach

• Wellness Recovery Action Plan

The next training session is TBD and will be Veteran-specific.​ All trainings are offered at no cost and available to people who live, work, or volunteer in the state of Oregon.​
