OhioMHAS recently announced that the Ohio Chemical Dependency Professional Board will begin handling some aspect of the certification or peer recovery supporters in Ohio. What does that mean? Will the peer voice and point of view be heard? Join us as the chair of the board, Dr. Drew Moss, speaks with Juliet about this and other topics such as profesionalizing the peer recovery supporter workforce and how leaders can better support peer employees.

 

"Peers really make a difference in the treatment landscape. They make a huge difference in the experience of a client who's struggling with something. I've never seen something more effective, to be honest with you, as an interaction with a peer who can just kind of go there and share and connect. And I think people want that connection. So my thought is we need to just make sure that we are giving folks doing that really, really important work as much time and attention as we can." ~Dr. Drew Moss
