Congratulations to our winter quarter graduates of TMWC’s Exploring Emotions Peer Education Program! Exploring Emotions is an eight-session course about understanding our emotions—both pleasant and unpleasant—and the needs that underlie them. Participants explore ways to tune into and manage their emotions in ways that work for them. Great work, grads!

Peer FAQ: Where can you find peer support?

In this writer's humble opinion, peer support is happening constantly all around you. It is a way to connect through shared experiences, which we often do in our day-to-day interactions.

To find certified peer supporters at work, you also need not look far. There are peer-run centers (just like the Thomas M Wernert Center) that are non-clinical and fully peer focused. Peer supporters also work in clinical settings, such as crisis centers, on ACT (assertive community treatment) teams alongside social workers and psychiatrists, even in emergency departments and outpatient units at hospitals. Peers can provide support in-person or online as well as in group settings or one-on-one, to meet you where you are at.

If you are in need of help looking for peer connections near you, within Lucas County or outside the area, reach out to the Lucas County Peer Collaborative at: lucascountypeercollaborative@gmail.com

Coronavirus/COVID-19 Update

JUNE 26, 2020 UPDATE:

TMWC made the difficult decision to again close to members and volunteers starting Friday, November 202, 2020 at 4:00 PM. Staff will continue to work, with their focus on connecting with members from a distance via calls, emails, mail, and social media communication. TMWC is uncertain as to when the center will reopen for in person programming. If you would like to receive a wellness call or speak to one of our staff, please call 419-242-3000 and leave a message. We will return your call as soon as possible.

If you are in need of information on the coronavirus/COVID-19, call 1-833-4-ASK-OH or 1-833-427-5634. Crisis Text Line is free, 24/7 support for those in crisis. Text 741741 from anywhere in the United States to text with a trained Crisis Counselor. Call the COVID-19 Emotional Support Line from 11am-7pm at 419-442-0580.

Thank you - TMWC Team
