Peer 2 Peer: Overdose Response Program

Type Of Service

Case Management - Substance Use

Program Description

This program matches Peer Recovery Coaches with those who have overdosed by meeting them at regional hospitals and community settings within Waterloo and Guelph/Wellington Region to offer harm reduction and recovery support to them and their family and friends.

Recovery Coaches will provide information about what will happen at the hospital, as well as education related to substance use, overdose, harm reduction, and resources that are available within the community.

Peer Recovery Coaches inspire hope through sharing of their own lived experience of addiction, overdose and recovery and provide short-term support during the transition back into the community. The goal of this program is to reduce repeat overdoses, reduce harm from substance use and educate and support family and friends.
