Full Job Description

12 and Beyond Treatment Center is seeking a compassionate, dependable, and recovery-focused Peer Support Specialist to join our multidisciplinary behavioral health team. The Peer Support Specialist provides recovery-oriented support, encouragement, mentorship, and practical assistance to individuals receiving treatment for substance use disorders (SUD) and co-occurring mental health conditions.

The Peer Support Specialist appropriately uses lived experience with recovery, behavioral health, or related life challenges to help clients develop hope, confidence, accountability, self-advocacy, independence, and connection to a supportive recovery community.

This is a non-clinical recovery support position that works closely with clinical, medical, case management, and other treatment team members while maintaining appropriate professional boundaries and remaining within the authorized scope of peer support services.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

Provide individual and group-based peer support throughout the treatment and recovery process.
Model healthy recovery behaviors, personal responsibility, effective communication, appropriate coping skills, and accountability.
Help clients identify personal recovery goals, strengths, barriers, and available resources.
Encourage participation in treatment, recovery activities, mutual-support meetings, and continuing-care services.
Assist clients in developing recovery-oriented routines, life skills, and greater independence.
Support clients as they transition between levels of care and prepare for discharge and continued recovery.
Connect clients with recovery meetings, sober support networks, housing, transportation, employment services, community resources, and other appropriate supports.
Facilitate peer support, recovery education, life-skills, and recovery-focused groups when appropriately trained and assigned.
Provide encouragement and peer support to clients experiencing cravings, emotional distress, interpersonal challenges, or difficulty adjusting to treatment.
Promptly refer clinical concerns, safety concerns, or situations outside the peer support scope to qualified clinical or supervisory staff.
Reinforce treatment recommendations and recovery goals established by the clinical team without independently providing psychotherapy or clinical advice.
Observe client behavior and promptly communicate significant changes, relapse warning signs, safety concerns, or behavioral issues to appropriate treatment team members.
Complete timely, accurate, objective, and professional documentation of peer support services.
Participate in treatment team meetings, staff meetings, supervision, training, and continuing education as required.
Maintain appropriate professional and ethical boundaries with clients at all times.
Protect client privacy and confidentiality in accordance with HIPAA, 42 CFR Part 2, organizational policies, and applicable laws and regulations.
Follow facility policies regarding client safety, incident reporting, emergency procedures, medication boundaries, contraband, and program operations.
Utilize trauma-informed, culturally responsive, person-centered, and recovery-oriented approaches.
Perform additional duties reasonably related to the position as assigned.

Required Qualifications

High school diploma, GED, or equivalent.
Lived experience relevant to recovery and the ability to appropriately and professionally use that experience to support others.
Demonstrated stability in personal recovery and ability to model healthy recovery principles.
Ability to establish and maintain clear professional boundaries and client confidentiality.
Strong communication, interpersonal, active-listening, and conflict-resolution skills.
Ability to work effectively with individuals experiencing substance use disorders, mental health conditions, trauma histories, and other co-occurring challenges.
Ability to work collaboratively within a multidisciplinary behavioral health treatment team.
Basic computer and electronic documentation skills.
Ability to successfully complete required background screening and other applicable employment requirements.

Preferred Qualifications

Current Peer Support Specialist, Recovery Support Specialist, or equivalent certification recognized by the applicable state or credentialing authority.
Previous experience in substance use treatment, behavioral health, residential treatment, detoxification, PHP, IOP, outpatient treatment, sober living, or recovery support.
Training in motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, crisis intervention, overdose prevention, harm reduction, or recovery coaching.
CPR/First Aid certification when required by the facility.

Depending on the program setting, duties may require standing, walking, sitting, participating in activities throughout the facility, responding promptly to client needs, and working within an active behavioral healthcare environment.

Some evening, weekend, or holiday availability may be required depending on program operations and the employee's assigned schedule.
