Peer Wellness Center

Peer Wellness Center The Mission of PEER Wellness Center is to put a positive face on recovery and reduce the impact of mental health and substance use disorders in our community.

The PEER Wellness Center is Ada County's Recovery Community Center (RCC). What is a Recovery Community Center? A Recovery Community Center (RCC) is a resource for skill-building education, information, support and socialization for those in recovery and their loved ones. It makes real the belief that recovery from mental illness and substance abuse is possible. The basis for available services and programming through an RCC are Peer-Based Recovery Support Services (P-BRSS). These are non-clinical services that focus on removing barriers and providing invaluable resources to those who are seeking to achieve and maintain long-term recovery. Peer-driven and peer-delivered support services are fueled by the energy of volunteers who seek to share their experience and knowledge with others. The support offered is not meant to replace treatment, Twelve-Step support or other Mutual Aid support groups. PEER Wellness Center recognizes multiple pathways to recovery.

Looking for a way to achieve "Hero Status" before noon this Sunday? 🍩✨

We are looking for 4 or 5 legendary humans to meet us at Peer Wellness Center at 10:00 AM on Sunday 3/29/26.

PERKS
The Goods: We’re talking a fresh haul of the best local treats—think classic glazed and chocolate frosted 🍫, plus some fancy gourmet picks like Maple Bacon, Oreo-topped, or S'mores 🤤.

The Vibe: High-quality hanging out with some of Boise's finest Recovery Coaches🫂

Recovery Fuel: Plenty of coffee to wash down the sugar ☕.

The "Plot Twist":
We’ll be unloading some boxes from a U-Haul. Helping out is technically optional, but it’s a great way to burn off those sprinkles and earn some serious recovery karma for the week. 💪

The Logistics:
Please let us know if you can make it so we can order enough dozens to feed the "crew!" 🍩
