Ohio MHAS Ohio Peer Recovery Supporter Training

OhioMHAS Peer Recovery Supporter (PRS) Training is a 40-hour training to become a Peer Recovery Supporter in Ohio.

The ADAMHS Board is a host of OhioMHAS Peer Recovery Supporter (PRS) Trainings.

PRS Training is for individuals with a direct lived experience of mental health and/or substance use issues. A "lived experience" means that trainees are personally in recovery from a mental health and/or substance use issue.

This training teaches individuals in recovery to use their experience and recovery to help peers who are also in recovery. Individuals do not need to have both a mental health and substance use issue to attend the training, but they must personally be in recovery from an addiction or mental health issue. Upon successful completion of this training, participants with a lived experience will be eligible to apply for certification as a Peer Recovery Supporter in the State of Ohio.

This is a 40-hour training and participants must attend all 40 hours. Lunch will be provided.
