Full Job Description

Peer Support Specialist

Real-world impact. Life-changing outcomes.

CommQuest seeks a Full-time, Part-time, and PRN (on-call/as needed) Peer Supporter to support our substance use clients in the Withdrawal and Recovery Services programs. The Peer Supporter performs a wide range of tasks to assist peers (clients) with gaining independence and ownership over their recovery process. They are a role model for persons with a substance use disorder, mental health disorder, or both (co-occurring). Peer Support helps clients and potential clients address barriers related to employment, housing, social support, transportation, etc. By sharing their lived experience, the Peer Supporter helps clients take their first steps toward recovery fully engage in treatment. They are one peer helping another.

Peer Supporters meet individuals at the beginning of their treatment journey and provide support as clients embrace their recovery needs. They assess for barriers to treatment and partner with clients to remove those barriers. The Peer Supporter is an integral part of the clinical team.

Services are individualized and relationship based. They respect diversity (there are many pathways to recovery) and demonstrate that recovery is possible.

In this role, you will:

Grow professionally
Build valuable relationships
Work on a team providing exceptional care
Make a real difference
