Next Steps for Change

Next Steps for Change builds community-based support teams to connect with members of our community who suffer from substance use disorders using peer support. Our mission is to lead them to their next steps toward recovery.

Peer support professionals are individuals who have been successful in the recovery process who support others experiencing similar situations. Through shared understanding, respect, and mutual empowerment, peer support professionals help people become and stay engaged in the recovery process and reduce the likelihood of a return to use.

Next Steps for Change is a “hub” for peer support.

**********

Research shows that peer support may result in increased empowerment and hope, increased social functioning, increased engagement and activation in treatment, increased community engagement, and increased quality of life and life satisfaction.
