Commitment
Peer recovery coaches work with individuals for up to 15-18 months. There is no maximum amount of time. The purpose is to get newly recovering individuals to move forward and achieve their goals to gain stability in their own recovery.
It’s always a goal that individuals who maintain their sobriety will in return give back to others in recovery as well. There is no cost to any individual for accessing peer recovery services with us.
