Description

Adult Drug Court Peer Mentors:

Mentors for adults in Drug Court help participants navigate and fulfill the requirements of their recovery plan, and help them access resources for rebuilding their lives. Mentors might help facilitate and accompany mentees to appointments, trainings for job/life skills, positive social activities, or recovery meetings. They also serve as allies and role models to their mentees, showing them the benefits of a positive and sober life.We ask mentors to spend a minimum of one hour per week with the mentee, and the commitment is 1-2 years. We especially need people in long term recovery for this program!
